Missing Power window fuse

[Stealth08]

Hello I am new at least new at posting to this group and I need help. Friday I was driving home from work with all my windows down and the sunroof open when I pulled into my driveway I tried to put the windows up and close the sunroof but nothing worked. So after doing a back flip and bending ways I never bent before I found the fuse box pulled the cover off found the location of the 30A power window fuse on the fuse block cover and verified the location in the owner’s manual. But the slot where the fuse should have been was empty my first thought was someone has added the power windows since I am not the original owner so I checked the window sticker and they are from the factory. Not sure what to do from here I hope someone has had the same experience and can point me in the right direction. It’s a 2008 vibe with power windows sunroof and a manual trans.

I had to fix the licence plate lights on my 2004 and when I was double checking the fuse box (which felt like a massage session) I noticed the P/W fuse slot is empty. My Vibe has power windows and it's working fine at the moment, but just though I'd ask.

Probably not a good idea for me to stick a fuse in there right? If it ain't broke...

I haven't looked at the fuse block cover for a long time. I don't think it is installed on my car, such a pain to get to, I probably never bothered to put it back on. I don't see in the owner's manual where there is a P/W fuse there, so maybe the fuse block cover is labelled wrong.

There is a 30A Power Window fuse in the picture you posted, but it''s one of the three square ones off to the side, not one of the little mini blade fuses. Don't know how it's labelled in the car

In those three, the middle (30A pink) one is for the rear window defroster, and the green one is a 40A for the HVAC blower motor

Ah! My mistake.

I was reading the cover of the fuse box and though the P/W slot is empty, and I thought that was for power windows. (if you look at the previous picture, imagine it fipped upsideside, then centre of bottom row, just beside the yellow 25amp fuse).


Anyway, ain't gonna touch that now.

Bump from the dead.

Anyone have any idea what the P/W slot was for then? Some sort of other option for other models using that same fuse box?

I have a 2008 Vibe but have not tried to pull this to see what it effects. I found this thread that talks about this fuse and has some wiring diagrams(link above). Let me know if you needed more help and I can pull my fuse and test.
