Electrical Tech / Need layout for fuse box
Won't work whether I'm in it or not.. I thought it might be the switches... I swapped them around with the same result...

Electrical Tech / Need layout for fuse box
Does anyone know if there is a circuit breaker type fuse in the fuse box that supplies power to the seats on an 87 mercury cougar... mine is a 20th ann. edition and has all bells and whistles for the seats... but, they have quit working... Is it just a normal fuse or one of the metal breaker fuses.
