Greetings lovely people, is your 12v Front accessories socket stopped working? Is there no more current going through it? well, in this case, I have a fix for you, this also might apply to other models, the issue is basically common across multiple car brands, check the video out.
My issue was a blown 10 amp low profile mini blade fuse that you can find on amazon reasonably cheap. Less than $15 for a giant 140-set combo. Paying for the 5 pieces is not worth the hassle as it's still $3-$5. I initially used 2 types of fuse puller and I could not get the fuse out, so I started looking for other solutions, eventually, I managed to get them out with the toothpick that I had in the bag with tools that I carry around, next time I will equip long nose piler to save even more trouble.
Make sure the vehicle is turned off and the keys are out of the ignition.
The interior fuse box is located underneath the steering wheel. I was able to remove it with my bare hands, and it will snap back on fairly easily.
After I removed the cover, I used my tools in the video, since It was a tight space, and getting the fuse out was the most difficult task. I had to readjust myself beside the car and prayed that the plier would grip well and the fuse would pop out. After a couple of tries, the fuse came out. I replaced it with the new 10-amp fuse. It was a lot easier to install using my hand, No need to use the fuse puller to push the new fuse back in.
Try turning on your car and see if the outlet is now working by plugging an adapter or GPS in. If it works, congratulations, you saved yourself $50-$100 easily! Yay, our first success in saving you money. If I can help people save money and learn something, then my video is working!
If you are not sure or having major troubles, please consult a professional. I wasn't a professional and I was able to replace my own fuse. Hopefully, you can save some money and do the same too.
