    Yes, the in-car fuses should all be listed in the handbook if you've got it.

    Welcome to the forum. To be honest, it is a really mellow place (in the main) so just enjoy it. But as should be said to all newbies:

    Also to be seen in a gold Honda CR-V these days...

    No need for the book out mate, open the drivers door & gently but firmly pull off the panel on the end of the dash (which the door normally covers) there's a list of which fuses cover what.... look down the list & fine 12V accessory, it normally has a 5A fuse in it, there may be one in the panel! (there's also a fuse puller too!)

    The fuse is #13 on the panel & should be the 4th fuse down on the second row from the left (steering wheel) side of the panel.


    You think I know **** nothing! But let me tell you I know **** all!

    Just a thought . . .

    The sockets inside the car are only live with the ignition on. The boot socket however is permanently live.
