Would have thought it was one of the main fuses by battery :-/

30A fusible link in the box above the battery terminal IIRC. That feeds the main relay (purple, next to fuel pump relay) and the engine electronics through that.

There's probably another fuse under the dash for the switched supply to the ECU.

EDIT: Unless you're talking tractors, in which case the above is probably wrong.  ;)

Oh, and I believe the coil pack is fed from a separate ignition switched supply from under the dash. Got a nagging feeling something else on the engine is fed from there too, but can't think what.

The problem I have is, I sold an Elite Estate which the buyer drove home (approx 40 miles) and parked on his drive until he sold his Laguna. When he came to move the car 3 weeks later it started fine moved back about 10 feet the flashed up a gearbox fault on the MID and cut out and won't start again so I asked him to do the paperclip test but he said there was no engine management light even with the ignition light on. When I bought the car the light was working then because I did the paperclip test to see if there were any codes stored and it was clear so I drove to his house with some new bulbs (3) and none of them will work and the car will not start. Its a new one on me :-?
