Weird wiring/short issue

Hey there guys, just got a small issue here.

This morning I plugged in my cell phone charger into the cigarette lighter. The charger didn't work. Now, neither does the radio or clock. The weird thing is, the fuse is fine. The fuse controls daytime lamps, dome light, radio, clock, and lighter. The dome light and daytime lamps run fine. The radio and clock do not. Can't test the lighter, only use it for cell phone (and the charger is in the trash now).

I have an aftermarket radio, and I pulled it out to check the fuse on that as well, and it is fine. Anybody have any clue what could be going on? I really don't think I burned through a wire, and all the fuses look good....but still no power to the clock or radio.

Nevermind, found the OTHER fuse box and the OTHER fuse for the SAME cluster. The REAL dead fuse was in there. Secret fuse panels are lame.

I've dug pretty deep in mine. I didn't notice any secret fuse box. One behind coin drawer "I", a big one in engine bay "2", a smaller one immediately ahead of it "5", and one by passenger side headlight "6".
