2019 Model 3 LR AWD, May build date.
Today I plugged in a power inverter into the cigarette lighter port in the center console (only checked the owner's manual later and saw that's supposed to be not permitted). I activated the inverter by pressing the button and it lit up. I plugged in a baby bottle warmer (for my kid, going on a road trip tomorrow). I turned the knob on the warmer and as it got above 50% the power cut off. I heard a clicking sound like a circuit breaker going.
Now I can't get the cigarette lighter to output any juice. My Multimeter shows 0 volts across it. Battery voltage (vehicle parked, plugged into mobile charger at 120v) across the 12V is 13.5 volts. The USB A ports near the infotainment screen work fine and my iPhone will charge when plugged into it. I tried a hard restart by going into safety & security, selecting it, then waiting 3 minutes. No luck.
I searched the owner's manual and found nothing. Google searches tell me there is no fuse box like a conventional car. I even have access to a service manual and I don't see anything in there (or maybe I just missed it) about this. I'm assuming there's no damage to anything considering the power inverter still works fine when I plug it into another car and the USB-A ports are working. Is there a way to reset the cigarette lighter power port without putting in a service ticket? Maybe there is some kind of timer before it turns back on? I'm going on a road trip with the car tomorrow so a service ticket is not an option.
Anyone ever overloaded the cigarette lighter? Do you have any advice?
