Default Power outlets stopped working

I put the wrong size in my radar detector and i think this is why they stopped working, my guess is i blew a fuse, the cigarette lighter and the power outlet both have stopped working, and with the new correct fuse the radar detector works in my bros truck. So is it a fuse, if so which one because i didnt see an acces. fuse?

Should be the "CIG/ACCY" fuse.

Open the driver's side door and on the side of the dash pull that panel off, acc fuse is located in that cluster.
