Do you have a standard ODB II scanner? If not, I would take it to somewhere like Autozone and get them to scan it. Just to see if anything at all comes up...

I'm not so sure that there is a power source for the port itself... It's like a serial port on a PC...

Power to the DLC pin 16 (power for scan tools etc) comes from a 15A LIGHTER fuse located in the interior fuseblock on the LH side of the console. (technically the BCM) The fuse should be "hot" at all times (ie NOT IGN switched)
Good luck

By LH side I think he meant the "real" Left not your left that you think is right

On second thought I'm retarded so forget it
