How do I read all fuses without numbers to know what each individual fuse is connected to and what size fuse it uses?
I need to know where all the fuse panels are in 2001 Lincoln LS. I also need to know what all fuses do what and where. I need to know what number each fuse is labeled.

What make vehicle an year an model . You need to look at power distribution diagram an see where those fuse's get B+ voltage from . Code reader saying not connected would suggest the PCM/ECM has no power either . Go to http://www.bbbind.com/free_tsb.html free wiring diagrams . Enter vehicle info . year ,make , model engine size . Then under system click on electrical distribution , subsystem click on power distribution . Then you can trace were power to those fuse's comes from . Do you know how to read a wiring diagram ? go on you tube an check out videos on how to read wiring diagrams .
There is no way on earth to answer your question without knowing what year, make and model vehicle you are asking about. Also, You ask what size fuse. There are many size fuses. Are you asking about interior lights, signal lights, tail lights, stereo, a/c or what?
If you have some electrical know how you can try to trace the draw yourself. You will need a multimeter capable of measuring amps.
First dis-connect the negative terminal, and make sure your dome light and everything else is turned off.
Next connect the multimeter in between the terminal and battery connection basically completing the circuit, and make sure the meter is set to amperage.
You should get a reading somewhere around 14-25 milliamps depending on how old or new the vehicle is. If you have a reading of say 200 milliamps then you have a draw somewhere.
Now once you get a clear level reading start by removing individual fuses and seeing if the reading goes down. Once you find the fuse that drops the reading down to an acceptable level you found the circuit that has the problem.
At this point you would have to trace individual parts of the circuit to find the specific draw which requires a fair bit of know how, and should be done by someone with this knowledge.
These lights would not be individually fused, they are part of the running lights, something else is the issue. Look for bulbs, wiring and grounding issues.
When in question about which fuse it is, given a fuse is blown, you can pull each individual fuse and inspect it. You can also use a test light without removing the fuses by first connecting the ground to a good clean connection and then put the positive side of the test light to the little piece of metal on the top of the fuse. There are two sides to every fuse and if you test one side and it lights up, but not the other, then you have found your fuse.
easiest way to do it is to get a box with multiple different size fuses in it, and individually pull each plug out, check it, replace it if needed with the correct size
