    Is that fuse that controls the power outlet btwn the front seats located under the dash ?
    The writing is so small on the fusebox cover it is hard to know which fuse to replace
    What amperage?
    This is a 2016 Prius
    Thanks

    Hi @Taxi/Limo
    Your profile shows a Gen 3 lol but this post is on a Gen 4 forum as a new thread. Don't know if you intended it to be this way.

    For the front power outlet, it’s the P/OUTLET NO.1 fuse, a 15-ampere fuse in the Instrument Panel Junction Block Assembly:

    See the illustration for “Left side instrument panel” in the section “Checking and replacing fuses,” starting on page 631 of the Owner’s Manual (PDF).
