ST162 Fuses

I'm pretty sure I've blown the fuse for my tail lights tonight (I checked the bulbs and they're fine) but when I went to have a look at them I found that my fuse cap is missing... It's a new car and I hadn't noticed that.
Would anyone happen to have diagram of the interior fuses so I know what's what? (or maybe someone could slap their cap on top of a scanner for me).
Looking at the fuses I actually found four of them blown; 2 of the 15's and both of the 75's.
I've concluded that the 15's aren't responsible for the tail lights by swapping them with other ones (there's about half a dozen in there). But I have no spare 75's to test those with so I'm just assuming one of them is for those lights.
But it does have me wondering what those other blown fuses are responsible for. Everything else electrical seems to be working perfectly.

Well my blown fuses are all replaced and the globes are fine, but I still have no tail lights. So I'm worried that it's related to my new stereo getting installed on friday... I'll have to pay them a visit tomorrow morning.
Could still use that fuse cap diagram though, for future reference.

For reference I remember my friend with an st162 having a similar problem...I think his turned out to be the actual switch that activates the lights (the switch that the brake pedal acts on)...

i can just about garantee that the donkey that wired your radio has wired the radio earth into the tail light curcuit. We see it all the time in the auto elec business.
