Question 12V outlets not live

I recently inherited a '99 NB. None of the (3) 12V outlets are live. I don't believe the original owner ever bothered to use them. So I assume there is a fuse that controls these outlets. Would it be one of the fuses in the dash? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome, and congrats on the NB. If it is the fuse, it is position #41, 15 amp. Hope this fuse card helps now and in the future. Good luck, from a former Attleboro-ite.

I think the fuses are the easiest thing to replace on the NB!! A pack of fuses cost me about $3 at Checker. If only everything was that cheap, quick, and simple...

Thank you Miss Ruby for the fuse schematic. That did the trick! Fuse #41 was blown - since replaced and I can now enjoy my XM radio! The Fair city of Attleboro sends its regards!
