Rear Cargo Area Power Outlet 12V - QUIT

Halfway during 2 week trip the cargo area power outlet stopped working. Used for mini fridge drawing 4 amps.
The fuse F90/91 is fine, it also does not matter what position the fuse is installed in (continues power or ignition power).
Does anyone know what the wiring harness looks like behind the panels, or where/how it is routed.:confused::confused::confused:
Any suggestions are appreciated.:)

It's one solid wire with no connectors between the fuse panel and power outlet connector.

I would look at the power outlet connector wiring closely, including the ground wire. Sounds like a loose connection or even a bad power outlet.

Thread revival time. How was this addressed ?

2014 JGC - power outlets with the engine ON !
1) Dashboard - works, powers radar detector
2) Center Console - works, powers cell phone
3) Inverter for 120V - works, powers a night light (I didn't try it with anything high wattage)
4) Cargo - DOESN'T WORK

Did a bit of research and besides this thread and a bunch of 2011-2013 owner threads discussing how to have power on the cargo outlet by flipping the fuse positions, there wasn't much to go on.

So what fuse am I supposed to replace if the other 3 are working fine ?

F38 30A Power Inverter 115V AC - If Equipped
F90/F91 20A Power Outlet (Rear seats) Customer Selectable
F104 20A Power Outlets (Instrument Panel/Center Console)

Is it the F90 /91 20A one ? Where is the power outlet for the rear seats anyways ? I do not recall having one. I've got an inverter, I have 2 USBs (power) and I have the buttons for the heated seats. There is no power outlet for the rear seats that I can think of, if anything, it is definitely not mounted on the back of my center console. Is this the cargo fuse ?

Well, it seems to be F90/91 20A fuse. I reinserted the fuse and now it works. We shall see how long the miracle lasts. There is either a misprint on the PDF page linked in my thread or it was originally meant for vehicles that did not have an inverter for the rear seats and instead had another 12V outlet (but I would not know).
