Where's your fuse box on the cossie?

I had an xr4x4 a few years ago, that had starting problems, amongst others, but it turned out that the fuse box was right at the bottom of the windscreen and over the years every single connection had corroded due to water ingress!

Turned into a bloody nightmare

Obviously the above would be the easy option to check, but if that don't work , have a look in the fuse box
