Default Dead Power Outlet

Anyone have a problem with a their power outlets not working? Both mine are out for some reason.
Is there any easy fix or am I going to have to head to Nissan?

Did you check the fuse?

talk about coincidence.
i found out my power outlet also isn't working just today.

i was trying to recharge my cell phone and as soon as i plugged in the charger,
the power LED on the charger came on then went out in about 2-3 seconds.
i tried it several times on both power outlets(one between the seats and one under the cup holder) but the results were same.

i don't know how to check the fuse but it seems like that's not the problem since it works for few moments before shutting down.

can this be caused by battery going bad?
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Replaced all the 10 and 15A fuses. Still no go. Can't find any other electronics not working.

something i didn't noticed before.
the voltage meter is always pointing just above 14 volts.
if i remember correctly, the reading should change constantly with speed.

i went to pep boys and had my battery tested.
they said it wasn't good so i got a new battery.
unfortunately this didn't fix the problem.
i'm planning on taking it to the dealer.

anyone had this problem?
any input will be appreciated.

Do you know that you replaced the fuses that control the power outlets? Since there are two fuse boxes (one under the hood and one by the dead pedal... at least in my '05) you may have missed some.

Fuse blew out. Dealership took it for a sec and replaced the blown fuse. Not sure which one it was.

Try plugging something else in and see if it blows. So far, I've had no problems with a tomtom, monster cable ipod fm transmitter, and Sirius. However, I have not tried a phone charger yet.
