    Sure Ken, did it short at the end of the barrel where it plugs into the 12 Volt outlet? If so the fuse is probably gone. That barrel usually unscrews and there's a fuse inside of it. Be careful it's usually held in with a spring.

    You can get me at "fixerguy01@gmail.com"

    See if it will come apart and send pics. Might have to get a new fuse.

    I'll check for a fuse, when I get home, I don't have here with me.

    But there is an actual break at the base.
