Default Help!!! Accessory power outlet not working!

I was using a portable 12 volttire inflator to put air in tire. After about 5-10 minutes tire inlator stopped working. I did not have engine running while powering inflator. The inflator will work in cig lighter. Checked the aux power fuse and it was ok.Arethere any other fuses in connection with the accessory power outlet? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks

It maybe the tire inflator. Some are built to cycle off after 10 minutes so it can cool down for 10 minutes. Just a thought

Aux power outlet is bad. Buy a new outlet & bezel for about 12 bucks from GM.
