Thanks for you, not me :)

When you refer to an inverter, do you mean the device that inverts the DC outlet to 110V AC outlets?

 

Thank you again for your helpful advice.

Yes that is what I am referring to, converts 12v direct current (DC) to 120v alternating current (AC). I was drawing too much power through my 400watt inverter and kept popping fuses. When I went to a larger 1000w inverter and hardwired it to the battery I never had any issues again. People try directly plugging these power tools in the new trucks OEM 110v 60hz outlet, but they are fed off an integrated dc/ac inverter that is only rated for 150 watts.  So they will power things like your phone or computer charger or your kid's xbox, but it will blow the fuse with any substantial draw from things like hammer drills, and angle grinders.

My front DCs seem to not be working, but my 120V, USBs, and the DC on the back of the center console all work fine.

 

Thoughts?

Check fuse #1 on the driver side.
