Default FBH no wires in fuse box

I have pm'ed Arctic but I'm sure he has a life.
I seem to be missing wires for the FBH.
In case anyone knows or Arctic is busy I have a facelift and no wires in the passenger footwell fuse box positions 37, 39 and 41. The handbook shows these as Parking heater.

Is it any other fuse position?
I have put fuse 8 in in the engine bay fuse box

It may be tucked away at the side of the battery box or in front of it as mine was. Should be there somewhere, have you looked for dosing pump wire yet?. Lee

are you talking about the two plugs in the engine bay? I have those.
Its the passenger footwell where there are no wires in the fuse box.

I don't remember having to do anything with the fuse box in the footwell, just had to plug the fbh in with the cables by the battery and add a fuse to the correct slot in the under bonnet fuse box.

The Parking Heater is an 'optional add on' to the Fuel Burning Heater, so the wiring for it may not be present in all vehicles.

As said you need other bits for the parking heater have you tried it with the engine running and see if it kicks in try taking the fuse out and put it back in to reset it

The fuses in the passenger compartment fusebox is only for the Parking heater options with remote and timer not for the standard FBH fitting

The fuse for the FBH is in the underbonnet fusebox
