Q: No fuses in the slots inside the cover

asked by on July 22, 2016

The wiring harness on my SUV was factory installed. There are no fuses in the slots of the two fuse slots that are designated on the inside of the cover. The lights were working, but unfortunately I shorted them when using the tester. Can you tell me where the fuses are?
