I have a Q70 S 2015 and the 12v accessory port (cigarette lighter adapter) in the ashtray, not the center console, stopped working. I looked in the service manuals, but could not figure out which has the Fuse box diagram so I can check that first.

Has anyone ever had an issue with this and if the outlet needs to be replaced can it be done as a DIY or do I need the dealer? I only use this port for a dual-USB outlet.

Fuse 18 is for the front socket, fuse 20 is the console socket (and rear if it has one). If fuse 18 is good, Nissan OE sockets all have internal breakers, chances are it's a weak/bad breaker and you'll have to replace the socket.
