2002 4Runner dash electrical issue

So I've had some issues with the cigarette lighter/outlet, the one to the left of the ashtray. The one, for your convenience, pictured below.

The two-prong plug of it, in the back, came loose from the wire connections behind it. I pulled the dash plastic trim off to get better access and plugged it back in.

Aaaand now that outlet won't work to power anything. Also, the entire stereo and clock don't work now. Everything else is fine, including the other power outlets and even the courtesy light on the bad outlet.

Any ideas on what I messed up here?

As I later guessed, it was simply a blown fuse. I replaced the 15A ACC fuse below the steering wheel and that was that.
