Default footwell lights do not work

Another electrical gremlin --my footwell lights stopped working along with my trunk light. Are they on the same fuse ,relay? If so which one and where is is under the hood or passenger side. Also my reading lights do not come on when I unlock with the fob, I can turn them on manually .What do I have to do to get the reading lights to come on with the fob? I'm confused

Default Blown fuse

Three years later, this thread continues to help forum members. I installed LEDs last week. I must have blown a fuse during the install. I had no idea which fuse might be blown until I checked the CF.

Another job done with the help of the CF...
