While wiring up my EVO-R LED Rear Fog Light, I happened to ground a wire that popped this fuse. When I hit the brake, the lights lit up, but not with my daytime lights. I prolly spent 2 hours checking the footwell fuse box and the 1 under the hood. Could not find the right fuse. Then decided to investigate further in the underhood fuse area. There are actually 2 fuse boxes in there. 1 is clipped onto the passenger side bulkhead vertically. Once you get it loose and remove the cover, the fuse you need will be in there. If memory serves me right it is a 10 amp fuse. (Red in Color I think, not Maroon which is 7.5 amps if I remember correctly) Swap that out and you'll be fine.

You can get fuses at any car store, this is what you want:





If you see the little strip inside is clean and unbroken, the fuse isn't popped. If it looks charred inside and the connection is broken, the fuse is blown and needs replacement.

Here is a link to order a set: LP MINI Fuses - Low-Profile MINI® 58V Blade Fuse - Littelfuse

I always keep a pack of replacement ones in the glove box just in case something pops.
