3rd Row 12 volt plug Power

I was in the process of mounting a rear entertainment system in the storage compartment with the 12 volt plug. Well in my going to fast installation, I was splicing into the 12 volt to power wire in my digital player and never shut off the battery. So I sparked it while splicing. Well, now I have NO power to the 12 volt plug at all or the wires there. I checked all of the fuses under the dash and none are blown. Everything else seems to be working fine. What am I missing? Is there an inline fuse somehow? If so, where is it at........mad at myself and frustrated. Thanks for the help.

Look specifically in the owners manual for what fuse controls it and then replace that fuse... that would be my first step.

Yes I need to dig a little deeper. Also I learned today, I think, that there is a fuse box under the hood. I did not check that yet. It may be there...

Fuse

It should be under the dash. Your owner's manual has a page, I think about 2/3 of the way through that shows the fuses and what they control. There's a fuse there for the rear power.

I looked in the owners manual and did not see it; but as I was in a hurry, which got me into this mess in the first place. I didn't turn the page to read about the power distribution box under the hood which clearly states, :fuse/relay location 9 - 20A* fuse - Left rear quarter auxiliary power point". I bet when I look at that one i will find a blown fuse! Any bets. Sorry for being such a dumb a$$. I appreciate your time.
