tested the USB by plugging in phone and noticing no charging, so then tested with a USB LED strip that was working plugged into a USB A port and no light.
The console USB is connected directly to the COMBOX. It is for data only and will not charge a phone or power any USB accessories. I have heard of a USB hub that comes in some cars that may be able to provide charging power, but not much regardless, maybe 500mA of current.
