    Cool

    first things first start by using a test light and see if you are getting current at the actual socket if not pull out and do same with wires if theres power to the wires and not the outlet then replace if no current at the wires (not sure which one ) but do a search for fuses and you will find what your looking for check that fuse if thats ok then maybe when it was yanked out maybe it stretched and broke one of the cables if so just rerun new power lines
    if you want constant always on power connect to a live line if you want it when accessories are on tap into something like the power window possitive wire
    hope helps robert
