I blew the fuse for the power socket located in the centre console - Honda refers to it as the "rear" accessory socket.

Page 256 of my 05 HAH Manual shows this fuse as #34. The diagram shows fuses 34-37 in a separate little area behind the main interior fuse box.

When I get into the box, I find everything as it is pictured - for fuses 1-33. Separate area for 34-37 doesn't exist!

Also, when I go into the fuse box in the engine compartment, there are extra fuses there that aren't on my manual's drawings. What's that about? I checked the extra ones, but none are blown.

Also, the picture on the cover of the interior box matches my manual's picture, somewhat - it shows the 4 fuses in a different layout, but still in the back of the box.

Does anyone know what is going on and where my fuse is???!!!

Thanks - oh a scan of my manual is attached.

I would check fuse #9 - front accessory sockets. My HAH doesn't have any accessory socket in the rear of the console.

I had blown that one too - I already changed it and it works again. The one I am referring to is inside the console, way down at the bottom of the big storage area at the front.


Thanks

I pulled out the big book, Honda's service manual, and it says it can be either fuse #9 or fuse #32. Must have been a misprint in the owners manual. Good luck.

My consule power socket doesn't work either (I just bought a used '05 HAH), and when I went to change the fuse had exactly the same experience - it's quite bizarre.

I found the same thing but on further examination noticed that if you look in their sockets there's no contact - it's just plastic. So these are just spare fuses, 2 at bottom, 3 at top (7.5, 10, 15, 20 & 30A).

Same here.

...also, the manuals refers to front accessory sockets (plural) on fuse #9, and rear accessory socket on fuse #34. As fasr as I know, I only have two acc sockets, one at the base of the dashboard in front of the gear shifter and one in the bottom of the center consule. They appear to be on different fuses as the dash one works but the consule one doesn't.

On the offchance that anyone's still reading this thread...

I found the elusive fuses: 34-37. They are located above the main interior fuse box, under the dash, right up at the back (on the left of the driver's side). If you use a flashlight and get your head under the steering wheel, you can see them.
