Fuse box lids

I'm missing my fuse box lid, both under the steering wheel and inside the engine bay. Does anyone have a picture of theirs? I'm in a 2000 F250 7.3, CC SB. I'm trying to get my cruise and overhead computer working and hoping it's just a simple fix.

The owners manual will tell you. The lid is useless without the manual anyway since the fuses are not labeled under the lid by anything but a number anyway. I always appreciated GM's actual labeling of fuses in the lids.

Truck didn't come with a user manual. Am I just up the creek then?

The CC and the horn are both run off the same relay, I think. When my horn started honking on its own I pulled the relay. The CC stopped working at that point. Maybe that helps?

Horn works fine, if they're connected then one should affect the other, correct? And I was just complaining about that little "wussy" horn on this big, burly truck the other day! 🤣🤣

The CC had a recall associated with it. There's a brake fluid pressure sender on the master cylinder somewhere that would fail. Without that the CC doesn't work, and some chance of an engine fire. Or so the TSB claimed. Or something like that.

I replaced that this morning and still nothing. I'm at a loss here and I really want my cruise control. 8hr drives just aren't as fun when you gotta hold the skinny pedal constantly.

Do you have power seats? I used to use a bit of broomstick between the seat and the go pedal on an E350 cargo van I drove a lot years ago...
