Default Quick Question!!!

I know this may sound stupid but where the heckis the underhood fuse box located on a 96 blazer. It's not my car and I don't know where anything is. I looked for it under the hood but I can't seem to find it.

Should be drivers side, behind the washer fluid tank, up against the fender. Plain black box cover, with big red power wire on the front of it.

is it required to remove the washer fluid tank to get to it? I can't really see it by looking down there. I thought I did but I was wrong :-/

Actually, I do not believe the underhood fuse box was used until 1998. The main fuse box is located off the driver side of the dash, accessible with the driver door open.

I don't have my references at my disposal at work, but I believe it is located behind the glove box.

You can force the clutch on another way though. Make up a wire jumper to connect both sides of the low pressure switch connector that is located on or near the accumulator/filter/dryer on the passenger side of the motor (~3" diameter & ~8" tall canister). Connecting both pins in this connector should allow the clutch to activate.

If that does not work, then you can also supply power and ground to the connector on the clutch.
