Accessory Outlets not working 2003 Chevrolet Tahoe

Chevy tahoe

My cigarette lighter and all of the accessory outlets are not working. I checked the fuses and they are not the problem. Are these all wired together to a junction box, module, or voltage regulator? Can’t charge my phone in the truck….aaarrggghh



Are you sure the charge cord is good?

There are separate fuses for the each outlet including the one in the rear. So make sure you check the appropriate fuse. After looking over the wiring diagram for the accessory outlets and cigar lighter there is a common. The common here would be the ground connection.  If you have a volt-meter you can check for 12 volt positive and 12 volt negative ground at each outlet to determine if the wiring is good or if the outlets are faulty. You can also use a test light if you have one handy to check it as shown in video below.
