Default Power outlet fuse?

I think my power (lighter) outlet stopped working. Where's the fuse? I couldn't find it listed on the fuse box.

I don't see any fuse box under either the driver or pass side dash.

EDIT: THERE it is. You really have to do some contortions to get to it.

It is all the way against the side of the car up above the bottom of the dash.

The fuse guide is on the back side of the little cubby pull out thing, aka change holder for me.

It is removable. Then you can see the fuse panel easier.

Do all insights have 2 power outlets (lighter) receptacles? Mine has one by the useless cup holders and one down under the steering wheel. Neither are working so I am going to check the fuse. Is there a fuse for each? Thanks.

The one under the steering wheel was not put there by Honda. If it's blowing fuses start looking at that one for the short.

As Sam said, the Insight only has one 12V outlet stock.
