Front 12v port

[Joe England]

So my 12v port for plugging in my sat nav or phone to charge doesn't seem to work is there a quick fix like a fuse? Any advice much appreciated.

There should be one in the cup holder (engine battery) and one on top of the dash (leisure battery). It should be a fuse but each is different.

This thread shows where the fuses are.

Awesome thank you! it's the one with the cup holder. Didn't actually realise there was another one. But learning as i go.

Oops sorry that fuse I sent a link to is for the top one, the cupholder one will be different .

The Pull out Cupholder 12v socket runs from the Engine Battery and normally the fuse is in the Fuse Panel below the Cupholder. A 15 amp Fuse. If not there check under Front Passenger seat.

I have a 2012 180 SE and experienced the same problem. I got help from the forums to fix the problem (Vale46 and Meoncoast). In my case the fuse was under the passenger seat. Rotate the seat and push it as far back as possible to give a clear view of the fuses. I have only four 15amp fuses in there. They are fiddly to pull out. I think it was the single fuse on its own. If not it has to be one of the group of three. Process of elimination. Sorry I couldn’t be more specific.
