we have tryed that and theres nothing down there at all but a plug that wont come out...it is like the socket is bottoming out and that is why it can't grip the plug....

Reason: adding to post
OK I was wrong there was a little rock down there!! Now the problem being I asked my wife to help me out. We got the plug out and ran into a problem getting the wire setted with the little bolt!! She kept telling me it was not going in right I tried she tried and then a big problem hit!! The head sheared off the bolt!! Now I have to figure out how to get the body of the bolt out and get a new one in to fix the problem! What can I do short of taking it to the dealer and having them fix it! I am so mad right now I am seeing red!!
short of asking someone on this board if they live close to me..if they would be willing to come help me and my wife we can give some gas money if need be may even have you stay and i can feed you steak and or beer we will take care of you
