Default Accessory fuse and any spares in the car

Hey, I blew my accessory fuse tonight, killed the Accessory port and the radio

At any rate, what # is the accessory fuse (its #5), and does the car come with any spare fuses or do I have to go get one tomorrow?

Thanks,

Under your hood. Open up the fuse box next to the battery, and look at the diagram. There are a few spares in there. DO NOT forget to replace the spares, or else the next time you need one, you are SOL.

Did the same thing. I think you can whore a fuse temporarily from some other function that you're not using.

I bought a pack of 20amp mini fuses and keep them in the tool kit.

Stupid fuses... I've had the car since practically new, but an audio shop installed the alarm system in it, maybe they blew the fuses and just jacked my spares, who knows.

Regardless, I bought a multipack today so I'm good to go now, I just need to toss some spares into my tool kit and replace the spares in the engine bay fuse box...

Thanks for the info - I'll post a pic of my fuse box for posterity since none seem to exist here.

What should I stock up on? Do the 10As seem to blow more frequently?

If they are, you have issues. They shouldnt blow any more than any other.

Thanks. I blew my Accesory fuse by plugging in a Coleman AC/DC adapter - won't do that again, but I didn't expect it o blow just by plugging it in, and after searching the threads, the Accesory fuse seems to blow really easily.
