Electrical problem 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 38000 miles

Hello and thank you, I love this site.

There is no power coming from the Cigarette Lighter (Power Outlet as listed in the manual). I have searched both fuse boxes of the vehicle and can not locate the appropriate fuse or type to replace.

The selection in the manual does not have a listing for the Power Outlet or for which fuse to replace.

Originally, a penny got caught in the Cigarette Lighter. I would love to be able to have a place to charge my phone while in the vehicle.

Thanks.
Mike

Re 2006 Chryster 300, 6 cylinder, 3TR, Where are the fuses for the cigarette lighter and is it one fuse or shared with another item i.E, horn, etc?
