Default Accessory fuse box.

Does anyone know where this is? I have blown the fuse for the 12v power going to the headunit, where abouts it the fuse box for this?

Cheers.

All the fuses are under the hood by the drivers window. I don't think there is any other fuses elswhere. When you remove the top of it there are also another small piece of plastic to lift up with 30 more fuses.

There are several additional fuses in the dash, accessible by removing the lower dash cover which is the piece under the steering column & pedals protrude from it.

Thanks both of you. I think the fuse is in the additional fuse box under the sterring column. Ironically I have just put the entire dash on that side back together, so I will have to run it off the 12v switched for the time being.

Most helpful btw.

Thanks aceyx but I am replacing the headunit with my Alpine one and it wasnt even plugged in at the time. I was crimping a bullet plug onto the earth wire and the crimps must have made contact with the 12v wire. There was a little smoke but I didnt hear the fuse blow.

It must have done, however, as the 12v line is now dead. As a temp measure so i can test the system I will double the 12v ignition wire as both ignition and perm 12v.
