    Where the heck is it?

    I've got no power to the outlet behind the middle of the seats junk box on my 2016 D4 and none to the rear compartment one either. I've tried to find the 2 fuse boxes in the front passenger side and found the one hidden in the top glove box but for the life of me I can't find how to access the one behind the lower box. But I can see fuses when I shine a torch through the gaps between the facia.
    Also, I know the pollen filter is hidden in the same place as I saw a mechanic put one in but didn't really take a lot of notice on how he did it. All comments would be welcome as I don't want to approach the stealer if it's something can easily do myself...... I really don't want to have to remove all my crap from the back if it's just a fuse.
    Cheers in advance.
    AlanH.

    PS. I've got the manual on the computer but it's less than forthcoming about access to these 2 things.

    Access to the fuses is in the manual. You lower the main glove box lid to the floor by squeezing the side hinges inwards as per the manual. You will need to read it to get the exact details unless someone comes along and explains it properly. However it is very easy and there is then access to all of the fuses.

    A bit off the topic but "where the hell is it". Is there any power wire in the centre console of a D4 that has 12V all the time. Ie does not shut down with ignition off? I have my CB wired to something there but it shuts down when you switch off. I really dont want to run any more wires through that plug in the firewall.

    Thanks.

    My CB works off a constant live installed with the dual battery system but why the heck does everything have to shut down after 3 minutes including all the outlets you want to use when camping.
    I've now got power to the middle and rear and it was fuse F55 the culprit. So thnx to those who pointed me in the right direction. Now how do we fix the shut down crap?

    Run a fused supply off the battery? I have taken a fused source off the battery to run my tow controller and leveraged that for others for those that are ok with a permanent feed.
