FYI: 97-2001 Fuse Locations

[Rich_cad]

I found this information online somewhere not sure where, so I can't give the proper credit, but it's so useful for those of us without an owners manual. I printed a copy and now have it in my glovebox. I pasted a copy below.

My issues where with the power distribution center under the hood near the battery.

Thanks, Rich
