The engine compartment fuse or power distribution box, is located adjacent to the battery in the engine compartment.

The interior fuse box is located under the driver's side of the instrument panel, it can be lowered for easier access by releasing retaining clips.

My first question is where is the fuse box on this car? My heater blower is not working and my uncle thinks that the fuse is blown, so we can replace it. My second question is since I have own this car, I have had to replace the alternator every year. The car has been sitting for two years because of this, what is causing the alternator to go out each year?

There should be a fuse panel under the dash, driver side.

The power distribution center is under the hood, driver side. Your owners manual would show this and identify the fuses and relays. The covers for the fuse/relays may identify their purpose.

Hi there!

Should be a 20 amp fuse in the INTERIOR fuse box. Look for the one marked #28......
