there is probebly two fuse panels, one in the cab and one under the bonnet have you checked both panels.
sometimes depending on the car the second fuse panel could be in the boot behinde the side panel covering, check out the manual

Hi ellroy
Have you checked fuses in glovebox ?
This is a link to a new site for all Talbot etc owners
http://talbotoc.cx.cc/
My Talbot was written off in April and apart from glovebox fuses there were some under the bonnet if I remember correctly.
Check out the site as we all are or were TE owners
