Default So... what fuses do I need?

Hello again.. some people know me from my last post about my lights... So anyways.. I went to check the fuses to see is they were bad, and I was trying to pull them out, and broke them. So for some reason the ones that were in there are unmarked... So I was wondering what are the fuses that I need to replace them... they are the hazzard lights and the tail light fuses...

Oh and Durango boy I put in a new flasher switch and it works.. as for the brake lights with the headlights on not working.. I'm going to work on that tomorrow after I get these fuses....

on the fuse panel there should be small numbers next to where the fuse goes that tells the amps needed

Stop/Hazard - 20 amp
Tail Lamps - 20 amp

that's for a '78, likely the same for yours.

The fuses ahould be marked, some better that others. Buss has the best quality and the markings are generally better than most others, all of them are very small though.
Shop manual for your year will have a drawing for the fuse panel that has al the fuse positions and values
