tklamert Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 (edited) Dodge journey 12v accessory power outlet in the dash and in the rear of the vehicle not working. I checked the fuses all are not blown. Edited March 30, 2015 by tklamert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkeaton Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 Guess it's time to start tracing wiring. Welcome to the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtsr Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 Did you check the fuses behind the glovebox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobitz68 Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 Is the vehicle running or in the "ON" position? Those 2 outlets only work in those situations. The one in the center console is always live. dhh3 and jkeaton 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhh3 Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 If the plug has a key icon on it, it only works on ACC or ON. If the plug has a Battery icon on it, it is hot all of the time. jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lobitz68 Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Maybe he read the manual.... Nah.... jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhh3 Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 No, he is trying to differentiate between a battery and a key. This action takes a lot of concentration and thought. onecrazyfoo4u and jkeaton 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onecrazyfoo4u Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 But isn't that how you start the vehicle? By sticking your key in the cigeratte lighter with the key label??? dhh3 and jkeaton 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhh3 Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Possibly. When I feel up to it, I will go out and try. I will post a detailed report on my findings. jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkeaton Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 But isn't that how you start the vehicle? By sticking your key in the cigeratte lighter with the key label??? No, you repeatedly push the radio button and cuss the car out when it wont start. (ask me how I know) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolly Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 But isn't that how you start the vehicle? By sticking your key in the cigeratte lighter with the key label??? I tried that once. It didn't start the car but I quit smoking! onecrazyfoo4u and dhh3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edan Tal Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 Anyone know how to remove it? I need to replace the cover which broke, and it requires removing the entire unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobitz68 Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 Anyone know how to remove it? I need to replace the cover which broke, and it requires removing the entire unit. Remove what? The power outlet? You need to remove the whole panel. There will be a retaining nut on the back that holds it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhh3 Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 At least on the rear one, there is no retaining nut. Slip a small screwdriver under metal housing, rotate the screwdriver and it will pop out. I did this a few times when I was trying to find a power source for my rear fog lights.

dhh3 Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Yes, at least for the one in the back. I might be safe to say that the other two are similar, but who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
