Default My armrest outlet is shot! :(

I would hope it's covered by warranty? Anyone else have problems with theirs?

what exactly happened to it? It should definitely be covered under warranty still.

Guess it's time to break out the manual, do you recall which fuse it is? Under the passenger foot-rest area or driver's side?

Will it be dark if the fuse is shot?

The only reason it would be shot is excessive Valentine 1 use!

not neccesarily true. 99% of the time you will have visual confirmation that the fuse is blown, but there are times when the fuse looks like it is ok. only sure way to make sure that it is working is to either check it with a meter or just replace it with a new one.

this happened to me too and it was the fuse. just look in the manual for where it is on the grid. easy fix!
