Good morning,

There are 2 fuses for the power outlets. They are on the under hood fuse block or TIPM.

I attached a picture for you.

Check the fuses for power. The TIPM is common for failing to provide power to many components.

As Roy stated they are in the TIPM. Be careful when removing and replacing them. On most of the Chrysler vehicles those fuses have two positions, one powers those outlets only when the key is on while moving it to the other position makes them stay powered on all the time. The factory position is switched power. That is the better option as it is real easy to plug in something like a cell charger or similar and then leave it there. With it powered only with the key on, it means that if it were to malfunction it's more likely that you will notice, rather than if it's parked in the garage and fails.

Okay, so you plug in the charger and it doesn't work. Is that with the key on or off? If they do not work in either position you need to go under the hood and look in the power distribution center at fuses 5, 6, 7. Do the rear charge ports work if it has them? Is there anything else that doesn't seem to work?
