Default 1-to-3 12v cigarette adapter

I think a fuse may have been blown when someone connected a high powered device to the adapter.

Specs:
Input: 12/24v
Output curr.: Max.DC5A (except USB)
USB output curr.: dc5v-max 5.4v/500mah
Total output: 60W (except USB)


I've taken it apart and included some photos of the circuit board.

Looking for advice on identifying the bad component.

Thank you.

The fuse is in the connector... You have to take it apart, there should be something you can screw off the top and a fairly common glass fuse will pop out.
