    fuse

    the fuse box under the hood has a fuse for the blower and one for the air con compresser
    when the engine is running their is no power on the bus bar that the fuse pluges into . further tracking the wires back their is no power going to the switch side off the main relay for the fan .
    i put a fused supply direct to the feed to the blower and the air com in the fuse box bellow the hood and everything works fine blower all speeds and air con again but the light is always on now when the ignition is turned off .
    so wot puts power to the fuse relay after the engine is running or when the key is turned to full ignition as this must be faulty
    hope this makes sence
    further more mine is a jap import and has the auto air conditioner control unit with the sun sensor and temp sensor at the front and inside the control unit

    blower motor resistor

    I understand what you are saying, mostly. And sorry but still what I gather is you need to check your resistor. Your symptoms match my previous symptoms and symptoms reported by numerous others. When the resistor gives out it may or may not blow a fuse or two. When the resistor gives out it breaks a connection and the motor ceases to function or may still run at one speed - unless you find a way to bypass the resistor. The resistor in itself acts as a fuse to some extent. When you ask "what puts power to the fuse relay..." I do believe it is the resistor... I may be wrong but it is worth a quick look. The year of VX makes no difference, as they all share the resistor part (to my understanding). Otherwise, I'm not exactly sure what other fuse would be associated with this problem, if you have already tried the fuse box on the side of the dash board and the underhood fuse box. So I don't think I can help you identify or locate the FL-1 fuse. To diagnose my seemingly identical issue I used the thread I linked to for you and it worked out as it has for several others. For some time it was a very common VX issue and over time this part could go out on every VX. I hope I'm not just blowing hot air... hehe pun not intended... I'm just trying to help.
