Default 2003 Center and Rear Power Outlets Not Working

Both center and rear power outlets in my 2003 SLT+ are not working. Noticed that the wiring diagram only shows one 20A fuse for these outlets located in the PDC under the hood and labled PWOUT and listed as fuse "D".
Have checked this fuse and it is fine, have checked groung continuity on both outlets and that is also fine.
Have looked behind the Junction Block fuse block on the left end of the dash as others have suggested and cannot see any fuses back there.
Hoping that those who have found these fuses under the dash can tell me where they found them exactly.
My grandson and I are going on a trip and he needs power in the back for his computer.

TIA

Fred

The fuse for the Aux. plug is on the BACK SIDE of the fuse panel. To get to it, pretty much put your head on the brake pedal and look left. I think there are four fuses there for some reason.

Here is my '99's.. Has two fuses back there. I'm sure the '98's are similar to the 99-00. Your guess is as good as mine as to what they control.

that fuse panel does not exist on the 2001+(anything with the new interior)

you found the correct fuse, it is the one in the PDC under the hood, if it looks bad or not replace it and then go from there.

Went under the dash today and could not find aux fuse box. Service Manual wiring 8W-41-3 shows Fuse D RD/TN to Junction Block C1 out at C4 and then to C302. Removed center console to access C302 and tested RD/TN and no power.
Guess next step will have to be removing Juntion Block to get at connectors C1 and C4 on the back of the block. 8-(

fxallen, you DO NOT HAVE THE AUXILLARY FUSE BOX

that box is a 98-00 phenomenon only, your 2003 will have the new interior and only one fuse box.

the fuse you need to replace is the one you indicated in the PDC, replace it even if it looks good, and check for power at that point while you have it out.

SOLVED ... Splice 353 under driver's side sill plate opened up. 2003 Durango SLT+ doesn't have auxilliary fuse box under the dash. Power outlets fed from 20A Fuse "D" in PDC under hood.
