1995 993 fuse box layout?

Does anyone have a diagram of the fuses and relays layout in the fusebox for a 1995 C2 cabriolet?

I was tinkering with the stereo yesterday trying to fit a bus to ipad lead, and the stereo has now stopped working, no display/power light. After checking all the visible fuses in the wiring, Using my multimeter I have managed to determine that the permanent feed wire has no power flowing through it. I have traced it back to the point where it joins what looks like the car's original wiring for the stereo. You can probably see the three wires, a brown, red and red/black wire. It is the red wire with the splice connector and a spade connector, red wire off-shoot. The red/black wire directly underneath it with the orange wire off-shoot, is from the ignition feed which does power up when the ignition is switched on, but the red wire remains dead. The "original car wiring" disappears up into the dashboard area, so I'm assuming that it comes from the fusebox pictured, which is on the other side of the bulkhead approximately directly opposite to where the wires disappear.

So my next thought was to check the fuses in the fuse box, but as they are spade type fuses, it is not easy to tell if a fuse has blown just by looking at them in situ. However, I do not want to just pull fuses out ad hoc to check them properly. It just strikes me as a bad idea without a diagram to at least indicate the fuse circuits protected.

Thanks

I think I will be collecting the idiot of the year award and it's only February!!!!

I never turned the fuse box lid over by accident, nor did I even think to look on the underside. It's definitely been a few years since I did any electrical work on my cars!!!!!!

Thanks for pointing out the obvious. I'm now looking for the earth to open up and swallow me whole!

I was going to mention the underside of the cover.... My 95 Cab seem to develope a short in the cabin light/glove box door circuit. Haven't looked into it yet, wait till Spring.
