Default My armrest outlet is shot! :(

I would hope it's covered by warranty? Anyone else have problems with theirs?

Guess it's time to break out the manual, do you recall which fuse it is? Under the passenger foot-rest area or driver's side?

Will it be dark if the fuse is shot?

The only reason it would be shot is excessive Valentine 1 use!

not neccesarily true. 99% of the time you will have visual confirmation that the fuse is blown, but there are times when the fuse looks like it is ok. only sure way to make sure that it is working is to either check it with a meter or just replace it with a new one.
