Default Pic needed of 1989 Mustang 2.3 fuse box

I have a 1989 mustang LX 4cyl auto w/full power. Im needing someone to snap a picture for me of the in car fuse box (open) so i can see what fuses im missing out of the box. Currently everything is jacked up in there with no lid. Blinkers dont work, hazzards dont work, Blower isnt working, neither electric gas door release nor hatch release are working and im sure there are more. Thanks in advance.

ok I checked my fuses and all are good.. none are blown out. here is a photo of my fuse box along with some misc. wires/connectors hanging. Maybe someone can tell me what im missing or what these wires go to/do. as i said above these things do not work:
*blinkers
*hazzard lights
*a/c blower
*electric gas door release
*electric hatch release
*no dinging when key is in the ignition and doors open either (if its suppose to do it)
*might be more just not sure yet, car doesnt run at the moment so i cannot test everything. Headlights, dimmer switch, interior light, power windows work. Just confused. Any help would be great!


****the last picture is under the drivers seat on the door side of the seat****

why do neither one of you have the (forgot what its called) the big Silver circle one?

-also the one under the seat doesnt get used, and the two wires cut by the seat belt buckle might be the stupid beeper for the seatbelt when your not wearing it. i disconnected mine to get it to shut up.

i got the chance to test the fuse box today and i am not getting any power to some of the fuses. is this a ignition switch problem?

*edit: found out that when everything i've listed stops working it's the ignition switch so im going to replace it and see what happens only $11 at advance auto parts

Going from memory. fuse box would not mount. It is mounted to body on airbag one's. Column on airbag is bigger so I think that would have caused problems for as my column trimming being big enough. The console mounted a little differant. Would have to use the airbag one. Maurice
