Default No Power in Check Engine Light Socket

Hi,

Yesterday I bought 2003 Toyota Camry XLE from a private seller.

Today its check engine light came on, I went to Autozone and he tried 3-4 different machines in Check engine light socket but none of them got any prower.

Atlast he told that there is no power in CEL socket or may be some fuse is gone or Socket itself is bad.

Can u please suggest what should i do next?

Thanks a lot in advance
Regards
Rajit

Yes, Ign key was On.

I also have personal OBD 2 scanned, which works in Collola but not working on this 2003 Camry

The power wire in the plug is fused- Labeled ODB fuse. A Black wire.

Location is in a fuse box behind the drivers side ash tray/coin box. Box is in the lower left corner of the dash about where your left knee would be.

White/Black and Brown wires are grounded.

Purple/Black, White and Red wires go to the computer.

It was wrong Fuse.

Replaced the fuse and CEL code P0442 came. I think I should replace Fuel Cap

Thanks a lot for helpful suggestion
