Cigarette lighter socket no power
Per manual it does not show the location of the fuse for this (2005 C-6 Corvette).
Where is this fuse located at and is it easily to identify?

I thought the fuse box was in the engine compartment.

Oddly as a power source for V-1 it worked fine before dealership installed reconditioned stereo. I suspect there is a link here probably something to do with installation and something was not hooked back up?

If a new stereo was installed (requiring the console to be removed) than "someone" may just have "forgotten" to reconnect the lighter socket. Been there, done that - myself. I've had my console out so many times (working on stereo mods) that I could do it in my sleep (or nightmare as the case may be). Very easy to miss reconnecting this (unprofessional if a shop did it, but easy nonetheless)...

This is what I suspect it is they forgot to hook the cigarette lighter back up. I checked fuse in passenger footwell and it is not blown.
