I own the car listed above (MAXX) and I've been through my owner's manual, I've opened the passenger side console panel and I have looked at the fuse box under the hood by the battery. I cannot find the location for the fuse for the front cigarette lighter fuse. Help?

I highlighted the fuse information here. It says it is in the rear fuse block. Let me know if you still can't find it. Thanks

Hi KaseKenny1!

Thank you for the fast answer.

I checked that and that fuse is only for the cigarette lighter in the rear of the car.
I verified this by testing the outlet in the back - it works - but the 2 in the front still do not.

Sorry. I should have given you the OEM diagram. I think it makes it more clear. The rear runs off fuse 12. The front runs off fuse 20. Take a look at this. The front has a "cigar lighter" and then an aux power outlet. So if the one in the rear works then it has its own fuse so we just need to make sure fuse 20 is okay.

KaseKenny1 - Thank you very much. That was not obvious or clear from the fuse layout on the panel when I looked. Thank you very much!
