Neither of my cigarette lighter / Power plugs are working

So I bought an fm transmitter so I could blue tooth my phone to mu car but none of the cigarette lighter plugs are working. The fuse for the front plug was bad and changed it f43. The back fuse was fine but still nothing? What could it be?

really stupid design - anyone normal would put a fuse that's most likely to be the one that pops on the ends of the dashboard where they belong...

they put it under the bonnet in the Front SAM 15 or 20 amp - needs stupid sized Allen key to take off the four fasteners - and even then its pain to get off - if u pop the bonnet to full extension u get a 1/4" more space to work

rear outlets - fold down the rear arm rest, fold down the little cubby hole, now lever up the cheap tacky plastic cover to find the Rear SAM
