Where is the fuse box on a 79 Pontiac catalina?

The fuse box location in a 1979 Pontiac Catalina depends on whether it's a coupe or a sedan. There isn't a single, universally agreed-upon location description across all models.

* Most likely locations: The most common spots for fuse boxes in vehicles of that era are under the hood (often near the battery) and under the dashboard, usually on the driver's side.

* To find it: Your best bet is to:

1. Consult your owner's manual: This is the most reliable source. The manual should have a diagram showing the fuse box location and a fuse layout.

2. Check under the hood: Look closely around the battery area; often, there's a fuse block or panel nearby.

3. Check under the dashboard: Look on the driver's side, often near the steering column or further down toward the floor. You might need a flashlight and may have to feel around to find it if it's behind a trim panel.

Without the owner's manual, pinpointing the exact location is difficult. If you can't find it, a Pontiac parts specialist, a local mechanic, or online forums dedicated to classic Pontiac vehicles (like a specific year/model forum) might be able to offer more specific guidance.
