where's the fuse?!
So I decided to be stupid and wired in too many things (by accident) to my stereo's 12 volt source. I thought I was wiring it (a switch for gauges) to the cig lighter...but was wrong. Anyway, I blew something as soon as I turned the switch off after trying it out b/c I realized I had wired into the wrong wire. Now the stereo, power locks, dome lights and map lights don't work. The clock's display pulsates (weird). I'm guessing I blew a fuse or a fusible link....which one is it. I tried the stereo one (20A) in the driverside kick panel. Any other ideas?

You might of toasted the theft warning relay... all those things go through it... I dont remember what all fuses are associated with that, i'll have to check my fsm next time I go out to my car (its a several minute walk from my ship

if thats not it check out fuses 6 and 15 (lights are on 15, radio on 6, not sure about the power locks)
Edit: The only other point I can find common to them (besides power to the fuse box), is the accessory relay which I believe is inside not in the engine bay relay box
