Default HELP - headunit fuse - ford focus - mk1

Hi

Ive had a 1.6 lx 5 door 99 T reg for about a year now.

Recently i fitted an 0 awg wiring kit to try and fit my amps. It all went well untill i tried wiring in the remote lead, and accidentally touched the ariel socket on my headunit (P77MP) leading to a spark. Now the headunit doesnt work in the focus.

I since bought another P77mp, and tested both of them in a mates car and they both work perfectly.

Yet not in the focus.

Ive been told theres a fuse for the headunit wiring, but no one seems to know where it is. Ive checked the fusebox and all fuses are fine, someone reckons in their T reg ford Ka the headunit fuses are behind the fusebox and it could be the same on the Focus of the same year!?

but i dont really want to take my engine bay apart to find no fuse....

I dont have a haynes manual and dont really want to buy one just to find this fuse!!!!

so please help, tell me where this fucking fuse is, what Ampere it is, and how i fucking get to it

There's another fuse box behind the glovebox inside the car.

F.31 15amp, top row 2nd from left
or F.50 7.5 amp Middle row 2nd from right

What he says! Have you checked the fusebox behind the glove box? I have blown the headunit fuse behind there a couple of times before, and it was a fuse located there.
