    I haven't gotten a chiltons manual yet and don't really wanna have to, eventually probably.

    So Im guessing its standard we all have 3 power ports in our dash console? Only 1 of mine works, the bottom left. Is that factory? Do all 3 have their own fuse?

    Thanks,

    They have fusible links. They’re a PITA to replace.

    Does that mean they are in the dash?

    I would check the plugs behind the ports, they could be loose.

    They’re in the plug itself. Look up how to replace fusible links.

    Both are Stock - built correct from the start.
    My two power outlets are dead. They run through a relay, under hood, in fuse box. I swapped the relay with known good. Inserted my phone charger and blew that one also. Haven't got around to finding the short yet. Just using cigarette lighter for power.
