Default 66 fuse panel labels

I did a search and didn't find what I want: The white-lettered labels on my fuse panel are not readable anymore. Can someone post a pic of theirs for me to see? Thanks.

Several places on this forum it says that the bottom fuse is a 20A. Is your pic from a 66?

Information is also in your 1966 Corvette AIM (Assembly Instruction Manual) see UPC 12, B1 "Fuse Panel Asm. & Direction Signal" the panel layout is fully described, the top fuse is "Tail Lamp & Brk Alrm-Gas Ga"

Yes, a '66.
In '67 they moved a few things around and the bottom fuse is 20 amps.

Looks like 2nd from bottom is tail lamp, not the top one. (See pic) And what does brk alrm stand for?

That's the parking brake 'alarm' flashing light in the gauge cluster. Lets you know why you smell burning brakes.

Top one is called out in the '66 AIM as three functions but the Owner's Manual clarifies two functions... brake alarm and gas gauge. Brk Alrm is an abbreviation for Brake Alarm. And if the question arises, YES the brake alarm is supposed to be a blinking light in the cluster when the parking brake is on and the key is on, it may take a few seconds to start blinking.

Hi, the small wire off the parking brake switch feeds the bulb that blinks

Odd that Buns pic of a 66 fuse panel shows stoplight fuse at 15A while my 66 owners manual calls for a 20A. (didn't realize this info was in my small manual or I wouldn't have even started this thread) Was this a mid-production change or for some reason vehicle specific?
