Windshield Washer Fuse and Airbag Light
I have had my 2007 350Z for over a year, and I love it. The car was in a front end crash.
The windshield washers never worked. The reservoir was cracked so I just had it replaced, but neither the front nor back gets water. Both pumps are there, but I don't hear anything that sounds like a pump when I activate either washer. I'm assuming there's no power getting to the pumps. I've spent 2 hours online and checking the owner's manual, but and can't find the right picture of what fuses are in which box, and what the abbreviations are on the fuse box covers. Does the 2007 Enthusiast have the fuse box you have to remove the battery to get to? In the fuse holder that's right next to the battery, there are also a few empty slots where I need help making sure they are supposed to be empty. They are: FL50A VDC, A/C CONT, ENG CONT. The Enthusiast is just above base, so I know I'm missing some options. I do have chrome pedals and the rear view MIRROR W/ HOMELINK.
Also, the airbag dash light came on several months ago, and it was right about the time I installed car these seat pocket catchers.
Is there a wire to the seat belt that could have been broken when I crammed these things between the seat and console? They work great, but they're not worth my airbags being disabled.
Thank you in advance!
I forgot to mention my car has an automatic transmission. There was also a fuse missing that had AT as part of it. Seems like that would be related to my transmission.

Let's start with fuses. Fuses are located in three locations (see the PG.PDF section of the Service Manual for reference). There is a Fuse, Fusible Link and Relay Box attached to the battery positive terminal. There is the Intelligent Power Distribution Module Engine Room (IPOD E/R) mounted just outboard of the battery, and there is the Fuse Block - Junction Block mounted inside the car behind the kick panel just aft of the driver's dead pedal. Both the front and rear washer pumps receive power through fuse 84 on the IPDM E/R (see the WW.PDF section of the Service Manual).
Where was the missing AT fuse located?
As for your airbag light, a good code scanner that reads airbag faults should pinpoint the faulty item. Try Autozone for help. If you don't have access to such a scanner, there is a key on - key off method of diagnosing the fault via the flash pattern of the airbag light. See page SRS-33 of the SRS-PDF section of the Service Manual.
