Power Outlet in cab no longer working

The 120V power outlet I use to charge my phone had stopped working. I tried theree different chargers and none of them light up.

First thing I did was check all the fuses. I checked all the 15s (I did not see a 15a in the dash relay box or the engine bay but checked them all anyways) and none indicate a blown fuse.

I'm not sure what to do at this point. Any help is appreciated.

Your engine has to be running and you have to press that button on the dash for it to work, no?

 

My thread said in the cab not the bed....

 

you said "120V" and then you post a pic of a 12volt outlet.

 

I think that uses a 10a fuse. 12v x 10a = 120watt max.

 

Sorry about the typo 120W (as you see on the label). I checked all the fuses relating to the power outlets and the like. As I said in my post none are blown.

 

There's a relay tucked up behind the fuse panel that may be the culprit. Let me find the thread with more info.

 

Much appreciated. I'm concerned it's gonna be a wiring issue

 

Could also try replacing the 15amp Pwr Outlet fuse. Fuse may not be blown but may have loosened or no longer passing current.

 

I can't find the thread, but I know @ramonortiz55 knows where it's at. Ramon, where's the relay for the 12v outlets?

 

@ziggynagy i just did that and no luck.

 

Just checking... you replaced the fuse, started the engine, plugged in the charger. Hmmm, might be the relay like eatsleeptacos mentioned.

 

I found the thread. Here's where Ramon says it's at.

"The interior fuse panel below the steering wheel.
You will have to remove the bottom panel below the steering wheel to expose the fuse panel.
Once you get that fuse panel exposed, you might have to remove four bolts that hold that fuse panel in place. This will allow you to "SLIGHTLY" move it down to reach your hand BEHIND the fuse panel.
On the back side of the fuse panel you will see three relays. The relay furthest to your left - furthest towards the driver's side door - is your relay for the power outlets.
You can remove it and test by plugging something in the outlets and see if it starts to charge or not.
If you have trouble removing the relay due to "large hands/fingers" you may use a small flathead screwdriver to pry it off.
Make sure you have the negative side of the battery disconnected!"

 

Found the issue. I replaced my charging cord when it crapped out with a cheap one from Walmart and I noticed my charger lit up (WTH?) then I plugged the walmart cord in i,t shut off.

Sensing an experiment, I grabbed an authentic iPhone cord and plugged it in and it stayed on. Basically the new cord I bought was not compatible and caused it to shut off. I wouldn't be surprised if the new cord blew or messed up the fuse relays.

You guys have been great. Thanks!

 

yup. @EatSleepTacos had it..

 

I know this is an old thread. But thanks. l am having this problem. Fuses are fine. Now just going from there!!!

 

Good luck!!

 

Does anyone know the part number for this specific relay. It looks like it is used for multiple applications. But I just want to make sure that l order the right one. These parts are pricier in Costa Rica. I don't want to accidentally order the wrong one. Mine is blown!! Go Figure!!

 

Are you sure both of these fuses are good? If so, check for voltage at both of them with the key on.



Here's the schematic.
