Not exactly.
It should have two or three fuseable link wires coming off the starter that power most of the fuses. The wires act like large fuses and can burn in two if overloaded.

Where is master fuse box located ??

Bentleys do not have a master fuse box as such. There are several fuse boxes both major and minor distributed around the car and countless fuses. The owner's manual only covers the more obvious fuses,many more are involved in the car. Without knowing which system has failed it is impossible to give locations.This is the primary boxc391b666-c2e3-4471-8a51-d47ee3affbfd.jpg

Power windows will not work on 1989 Toyota Celica convertable

How do you know it is a fuse or a relay? It could be a broken wire. It could be a faulty master switch....It could be a LOT of things....

The power window circuits need to be properly diagnosed to determine the cause of the problem.

With that said, the ONLY relay related to your power window circuits is the "auto-down" relay, which is an integral part of the driver's master switch assembly - you cannot replace it without replacing the entire switch.

There is no fuse for the power window circuits on your 1989 Toyota Celica...I guess that explains WHY you cannot find it. Your power window circuits are protected by a 30 Amp, self-resetting circuit breaker located in Junction Block #1 (in the left kick panel).

Cant find the clutch reservoir on my audi a4 1.8 eastate r reg..

The Clutch Master Cylinder is located on the firewall inside the engine bay, and usually next to the brake master cylinder as the brake and clutch pedals are usually very close to one another. The Clutch Master Cylinder is responsible for transferring the clutch pedal pressure hydraulically to the slave cylinder to release the clutch. You can tell when your clutch master cylinder is dying or needs repair when you depress your clutch pedal and it slowly sinks to the floor and does not return. Since the entire system is a hydraulic one, the master cylinder also has a reservoir that holds the fluid used in the clutch hydraulic system. If you decide to change the clutch master cylinder it is a good idea to also get a clutch slave cylinder at the same time, as both units typically fail around the same time. When replacing your master or slave cylinder, its always a good idea to flush your entire system to prevent water buildup or air pockets from being present when you are driving. Also always keep an eye on the fluid in your reservoir, dirty fluid may mean that the internal seals are allowing dirt and contaminants into your master cylinder.

Where is the master fuse located

The master fuse is location in the fuse box under the hood. It is conneted from the battery on one side and the alternator on the other side. There are two nuts on the passenger side that hold the two wires and fuse. You may have to pull up the whole fuse box. There are two plastic clips that hold it to the rade support.

Electric windows do not work

You have 2 fuse feeds in battery junction box under hood.Fuse 6(60amp) and fuse 62(30amp) and one fuse in the interior fuse panel no. 17(15amp).
How the system works is fuse 6 feeds fuse 62 which feeds the switch side of the accessory delay relay which is located in the interior fuse panel. Fuse 17 feeds the coil side of the relay and the instrument cluster micro-processor grounds the coil side of the relay.
When coil side of relay is grounded it creates a magnetic field which pulls the switch side closed which then lets power flow to the master window switch on the LB/BK wire on pin 6. The ground for the master switch is G400 which is the BK wire on pin 2 and G400 is located in the left rear quarter panel next to the tail lamp assembly.

Hope this helps.

2004 Dodge Neon SXT gauges out

Don't overlook a loose connection in the wiring harness. Since the entire dashboard goes out, the plug on the harness may not be all the way in to make a good connection. I don't think that everything would go through 1 fuse. Some of the Dodge's used to have a master thermal fuse. This would kill power to almost everything when over amp'ed or ever heated. Good Luck
