Default In car power outlet fuse (for phone charger, etc)

Does anyone have a diagram of the fuse panel containing the fuse for the two cabin power outlets used for phone chargers and other such things? I believe my Verizon cell phone charger blew that fuse. Thank in advance, jj

look in your owners manual for the fuse assignments. Also make sure that you did not blow the fuse in the phone charger cable.

My 400 amp invertor kept blowing the fuses too. Finally, I took a large sidecutter, and squared off a penny to the width of the fuse, and hammered it into the fuse slot. Works great now (learned that trick at my grandpas house back in the 60's)

Yes, it will work great up to a point where you may set fire to your wiring. Remember that the fuse is there for a reason. Anyhow, I trust you know. I advise that you at least put a drip tray under your wiring in case the insulation starts to melt.

Turns out that both ACC fuses (28 & 29) were blown. I guess there are more people with Verizon's chargers out there then I thought. Thanks guys

We had this discussion about a year ago.
I plug in the phone with the engine turned off.
