Sirion 2003 SL

Is there another even more well hidden and inaccessible fuse box somewhere on this car?

Anyone know what fuse the stereo and clock are on?

Thanks for any help you can offer me.

Thanks! I don't know HOW I missed it as that was the first fuse I checked ('Back Up' Fuse) and I checked all the fuses twice! It does seem to have fixed it. It had been removed altogether by the unscrupulous car dealer to mask a jammed CD in the stereo by the looks of it...I shall see!

Thanks again
