07Eddy and BrooklynBay,
Sorry for the CPR of this thread - I'm diagnosing a similar problem.
I have two of the three power plugs not functioning. The only one that works is located within the armrest. I replaced the battery (AAA came over and installed the battery) and the alternator.
In the morning I'll check the fuses, ground, and check for corrosion.
These two power plugs stopped working after my transmission was rebuilt a month or two ago. I asked the tranny shop if they removed the armrest however their response was less than helpful...
FordParts.com might have a wiring diagram, I'll reference the diagram too.
Thank you!
