Fuse numbering boot fuse box V8V
Discussion
Just a quicky, I want to identify two fuses in the boot fuse box, 1 that is on all of the time ( I think the boot light will do) and one that comes on with ignition ( possibly fuse 22?)
I've looked at the manual and the fuse box but can't identify which number in the book corresponds to which fuse in the fuse book. The book numbers them fuse 1 onwards but doesn't have a graphic to identify which is fuse 1 in the box?
Anybody point me in the right direction for a diagram or can tell me which is fuse 1 in the fuse box please?

Rig you a both right thanks. Reading glasses and a torch did the trick and I can see the numbers now. I may have to come up with another plan though because I had thought the boot lamp circuit fuse 17 in the manual would be my "always on" circuit, but when I pulled the fuse to test it, the lights remained on. Don't know if the manual is wrong but I would have thought pulling a circuits fuse would mean that circuit would no longer operate.

I'm hard wiring in a dash camera. The only way I can do it myself is by using the add a circuit leads that go into a fuse box ( I don't have the skill to cut into a wire and solder new wires in).
Th instructions require an always on circuit and a circuit that comes on with the ignition and an earth, yes I have fuse 22 for the ignition circuit but need a always on circuit too. Thought the boot lamp circuit would be it, but now come to s a standstill because when I pulled the fuse identified in the manual as boot lamp circuit the boot lamps stayed lit!
So, need an always on circuit in the boot fuse of or I'll have to open the cabin fuse box and try there. Thanks.

Steve, that would suggest fuse 17 is probably not the best choice, the reason the light goes permanently live is probably to do with the delay circuit on the interior lights.
I don't have the fuse layout to hand the moment to suggest an alternative.
Thanks Allan, I thought there may be a delay or something, so closed the boot lid, waited a few seconds then opened it again and the lights still came on, suggesting that removing the fuse 17 ( as per the manual) is not actually the boot lamp circuit. If I can't find an alternative I'll go into the cabin fuse box tomorrow. Seems to be plenty to pick from in there! I don't have the fuse layout to hand the moment to suggest an alternative.
Luna is right, the rear power socket is on all the time (when Ignition is on). I just blew the damn thing and had to replace it, at 15 amps it will cover just the sort of thing you are hard wiring. My parrot system is wired into the rear power socket, so it stopped when the fuse blew. I must admit, from the photo, I'll be damned to know how you're going to wire into it ........

Well if its like the boot fuse box then I'm going to use an add-a-circuit which just slots into an existing fuse and adds another fused circuit( I'll actually need 2). I'll find out tomorrow when I take the cover off to see if it will work. Fingers crossed!
