Default '98 Where is the Power Outlet Fuse?

I've checked in the fuse box and the PDC under the hood and it's not there. It gets continuous power from the battery, but can't locate the fuse...The manual says it's a 20A fuse. Any help?

yeah, all those are in the regular fuse box...the power outlet is a separate plug-in beside the cigarette lighter.

def not, i had a blown cig lighter fuse for months and the radio and horn worked
thats a GM or ford idea

yours may use the same one as the cig lighter, if not it'll be in the fuse box somewhere.

Having the same problem. Cig lighter works, but both the power outlet in the dash and in the rear don't. Can't find the fuse for the power outlets. Nothing else is not working, and I even checked the wiring at the outlet. When it worked, the outlets would work with the ignition off(as opposed to the cig lighter) if that helps.

I found it on my 97. It is in the PDC in the engine dept. I have a 30 amp fuse in what my cover says position 14, the owners manual says position 13 a/b.
