We just purchased a 1998 Tracer and the fuse boxes are under the hood on the driverside and under the dash on the driverside. Hope that helps. The Owners Manual will have details on the fuses - since you just bought the vehicle, you may need to download a free version of the manual (save $$ from having to buy one!).
