could be useful, though I don't understand why some items are on 2 fuses, for example the cigar lighter is on 11 @ 5amps and 15 @ 15amps :S

I'm assuming it's covering a few models although I will whip my fuse cover out tomorrow to double check

It is the layout for the early fuse panel, the cigar lighter is ignition controlled. A feed from the ignition switch circuit feeds the coil of a relay (and other items) via fuse 11, and fuse 15 is a battery feed to the contacts of the relay, which feeds the lighter, so it is only 'on' with the ignition. The later cigar lighters were not ignition controlled.

It is the same for some other layouts, one circuit controlling another circuit, each with its own fuse.

The reason for that Lewis is in the previous post:

Your 2005 car will have the later design which has a different layout.
