Most fuse boards have what the fuse is for either on the lid over the fuses or next to the fuse.
Failing that buy a Haynes manual. Relatively cheap and helpfull for items from basic to advanced.

#14: Re: Screen wash Author: kandlbarrett, Location: SwindonPosted: Thu Jan 17, 2013 11:45 am ---- I would look at my manual or car and tell you but both are currently 70 miles away!
