Default Dead AC outlet

O.K. So I was using my power outlet in the ashtray to pump up a tire with an air compressor. I left for a few minutes and return to find the compressor had stopped running. Did the outlet blow? I have no idea. The other AC source in the console works, but not the ashtray. Can someone please help? Ideas and suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks.

I have checked the fuse, the one in the kick panel for the outlet. I put in a new fuse and no luck. Anyone have any other ideas as to what may be the problem? Thanks.

I know this may sound stupid bud I had something like that happen to me only it was my cell phone charger. I just used a lil brute force and jammed the plug in there and voila it had power.
