Question Where is the fuse i've blown

Hi all,

I was messing about behind the speedo the other day, removing some nasty defi style guages.

I've just gone to use my car, in so doing i turned my lights on and nothing.

I'm guessing i've accidently blown a fuse, as nothing i did behind the speedo was connected to the wiring for the lights.

Can someone tell me where the fuse or relay is that controls the lights.

Hi, fuses 27, 28 and 29 that are in the fuse box in the engine compartment are for the lights. With 29 being the lighting switch, so maybe that's the problem. This is for the classic Impreza. Hope this helps.

I've checked the fuse panel and I can see that the middle colume top fuse (10a) was blown. As my Classic is an import I've no idea what fuse it is for or what number.

Does anyone have a diagram to help me figure out what fuse is what?

Also, I've replaced this fuse and the lights still don't work, so I'm wondering if there is a relay blown too?

I've not pulled all the fuses from the fuse box in the fuse box on the inside of the car but they all look intact, although I'll have a better look tomorrow.

Right I found the little pest it was the rear fog light fuse inside the car. I forgot that the lights all work on a circuit, so if one goes they all go.

Thing is I've replaced this fuse and the lights now work. But I've noticed the lights on the actual buttons no longer light up. When I used to push the fog light for instance, there was a yellow orange line light up on the button. I guess I have another fuse gone somewhere.

I know its not the buttons themselves as I've tried a mates button which works in his but not mine.
