I apologize if this has been posted before but I haven't been able to find it.
I have a 2014 Stelvio.
I plugged an air compressor into the 12 v socket, it ran for a second and quit. The compressor still works in my honda, so I assume I blew a fuse. However I cannot find any reference to that anywhere and everything else still works that I can see, including the GPS power.

I don't use the socked themselves but I have a usb charger spliced in on that circuit under the seat.

Also, I'm unable to find the aux fuse box listed in the service manual, it's not under the right hand fairing.
 
The main 30 Amp fuse supplies the power to the socket, but also to lots of other things, so I would doubt it's the fuse. Haven't got a Stelvio so can't tell you where those aux fuses are. On the Norge they are above the battery.
 
Turns out, there is a fuse block right behind the headlights, left side of the center frame. Trouble is, even tho the socket is marked 180 watts, it's actually a 5 amp fuse.
 
According to the wiring diagram I have, the 12 volt socket is wired directly across the output of the alternator. This in turn, is connected to the battery via a 40 A fuse. Also says this in the owners manual.

The main fuses are under the seat on the RHS of the bike.

Neither mentions this fuse block at all. I found the info on advrider, and when I checked, sure enough #7 was blown.

Oops, I see the owners manual mentions fuse G with a 5A fuse. Too small for the compressor, I imagine.

The Carl Alison wiring diagram I have is obviously incorrect, I wonder if he ever did a later one?

I can't imagine why they would make it 5 amps, that makes it pretty useless.,i'll probably unplug the front one next time i,have the fairing off. I only use the under seat one to charge usb power banks for when I'm camping.
