Headlights, dash lights, brake lights quit working all of a sudden. Where are relay switches located under the hood? Where is the fuse panel?

Hello,

It looks like you have a fusible link (b) that is out which powers all of those circuits. Please check for power at fuse tail, courtesy, and instrument fuses.

There's a relay control panel under your hood, on the passenger side in the front.

There should also a fuse box in the interior, at the very end of the dash on the drivers side or passenger side. There'll be a plastic access panel that's painted the same color as you dash. Just pop it right out.

If you can't located, let me know and I'll try to help you locate it.
