2002 Buick Rendezvous. Both front accessory outlets and the rear seat outlet are suddenly dead. Everything else seems to be working. The owners manual shows fuse #32 in the underhood box for the fronts and #14 inside box for rear outlet. Both fuses are good. Any suggestions? Please help! Gotta have my iPod!

These fuses control other things besides what you have wrong. Make sure that the connections are good. It could be that the outlets itself has gone bad. Or it's not making a good ground. If you have a good test light, then make sure the ground is good and disconnect the outlet and check the wire. If there is power there then it's the outletor your adapter that has gone bad. The front two also power the cigar lighter and the rear also powersthe air ride system int he rear. Also see if the aldl is getting power. These all h ave an orange wire for power. You could also stick the test light in the center of the pouwer outlet to see if it's getting power. On the front ones ther eis a splice under dash that may have been cut/or damanged.
