Check the fuse actually has a connection, the terminals corrode and so no connection and that there is actually power at one side of the fuse WITH ignition ON. I suspect there is no power assuming all the components you tested with are known to be good.

Thanx for the advice fela you where right, the fuse wasnt connecting at one side. sorted the connection out and its fine now.
The number 4 fuse does the heater fan, rear wiper, washer jets for fucture reference, might come in handy for someone
cheers again bud
