Default Newb Question of the Day - Second Fuse Box

Where in the hell is the fuse box that contains the fogs, driving beams, etc?! I've looked through the fuse box under the hood and don't see them marked so figure they're in another. No owners manual so can't consult that.

Search for Ronjenx's post on the fuse box explained. He's got every circuit broken down. The fuse box is there under the hood, I've not found another one yet so they're in there but on a discretely labeled circuit.

The headlights and fog lights don't have fuses.
If the TIPM senses an overload, it will cut the power to the lamp.

This is what makes a SPOD a good choice for most applications. It's self contained so the TIPM does not come into play. You can always make your own relay box set up the same way and save a bunch too.

Both of my fogs went out at the same time. I found that a little odd so thought the fuse was blown. Guess I have a lot to learn about fuses.
