thats a good question that slot in my panel is empty also but my interior lights work so thats not causing the interior lights to not work.

DRL = Daytime Running Lights????

what year is your car? im guessing a fourth gen.

as far as the interior lights and horn and such, check your acc fuse, and also under the hood check your maxi fuses, one of the big ones, say 40 or 60 amp may have blown. Im thinking an AUX1 or AUX2 fuse.

all those circuits are on the ACC fuse, and it's also a common problem with them blowing. I bet you have a short somewhere that blew the fuse, if you put a new one in and it blows quickly, then I'm right. I hope I'm not tho, because tracking down that short is gonna be one hell of a project.

Naw No day time running light I have a 92. Acc fuse is the big 12volt ones right..However when I was reading threw the paper work from past owners and there maintaince check-ups, it said that the hatch light would not turn off even with hatch closed. Maybe that disconnected everything to prevent battery drain??

my acc fuse is a 20amp, yellow in color i think. and on my 91, the rear hatch light is on a separate circuit than the rest of the interior lights. I recommend getting a chiltons or haynes book and look over the wiring diagrams.
