12v fuse blow

hey guys, i was out wheelin last night and when we were using a construction strobe from my buds truck we blew the 12v fuse. no big deal except i cant figure out whats up with it.

ford labels this fuse as the "power point" fuse correct? because the cigar lighter fuse is a relay and that relay box i dont even have.

if that fuse is not blown then what else can i do or should i do to fix this.

yes ive looked in the manual its like fuse 1 in the engine compartment. not broken.

help me out guys really would appreciate it.

No, I was mistaken. This is the correct info:

From the owner's manual:

Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel:
Fuse#3 20A Cigar Lighter, OBD-II Scan Tool Connector

Power Distribution Box in the engine compartment:
Fuse#1 20A * Power Point

Huh ? Where did you get this ? The cigar lighter is not on a relay.
