W126 fuses questions

[Quirrel]

Looking at the car

Fusebox is on the top left with the old style continental fuses - where is the best place to source them as they are quite oxidized at the moment

To the left of the fuse box is another small box with two fuses in - one of which is missing.

What fuses are these for?

HALFORDS do them they call them " continental fuses" any motor factor/electrical supplies should be able to source them.

Any idea what the missing fuses are for on the small box to the right of the main fuse box? I think it's climate control and blower, but not sure

Any chance you could snap a pic? Not sure either of mine have these.

When you source the fuses look for the ones with a copper/Brass strip instead of the alloy (looks like aluminium) They are a better quality and do not corrode so readily

In my car they are for the heated seats but the manual also says they can be for the blower motor(vehicles with auto climate control) and/or for a permanent current for a trailer.
