What 12V accessory plug in?
Been blowing a fuse for the last six weeks or so that provides power to the Radio and the 12V plug in on the Pilot.
Took the panel apart last week and kicked and pulled every wiring harness trying to get the dagnab thing to blow. Doesn't blow. I shut the back door and it blows.
I finally gave up and decided to make a new circuit for it. A little tricky as i had to wire in a relay. Spent four hours rewiring the deal. I take my time and put foam around the wires in the tight areas so they don't vibrate and make a buzz or rattle. Fire it up and we're good to go.
Head over to the parents place and have dinner, watch the swamp logger marathon. Head home and I told my wife I wired up the 12V plug in so she could use it too.
She asked, "Does the one in the middle work too?" I point to the second row plug and said it's on a different circuit it's never been out. She says, " Not that one in the middle, the one in the console." I said, 'What 12V plug in in the console?" She opens the lid and puts my hand down on this plug in with a lid on it. I lift the lid and stick my finger down into it and feel some objects in the bottom of the socket.
Get home, fish them out and find her cell phone charger plug had dropped the metal screw and rod into this vertical 12 V plug in. The were small enough that if they were centered they didn't touch the wall. But if you slammed a door or turned a corner or brake hard they would shift far enough to touch. Spent an hour yesterday wiring back up to the original scheme.
Nothing on the wiring diagram shows a plug in the middle of the console.
Could've figure the deal out last month had I only known that plug it was in there.
