Yes, the owners' manual is where I found the physical arrangement of the fuses and relays in the two plastic boxes under the hood. The same graphic that's in the manual is on the covers of the boxes. The car is a 99. I will give it another look later today once I have a dose of car fuse and relay medicine. This will not beat me.
Cool.
If you can find a Haynes manual for that ride, get it. Or a service manual from the mfg. I generally get both for each of my rides, if I can.
I'm kind of surprised (knock on wood) my '99 Chrysler has never had smog related errors.
There might just be a plastic tab holding the cover in place, cleverly disguised by some insane GM designer to look like a hookah.
Now, about three decades ago I got caught in a traffic jam in the snow on the way to a cross country ski trip near Tahoe. But it only lasted an hour or two and we were close enough to our destination that it was no biggie. And the roads were cleared by the time we departed from the ski area to go home.
But 30 hours is a bit much; always a good idea to pack a down or poly sleeping bag when traveling in the snowy weather, I suppose.
Interstate 95 has reopened, more than a day after a crash brought the East Coast's main north-south road to a halt and stranded drivers.
The Virginia Department of Transportation announced at 8:40 p.m. Tuesday that the interstate reopened after being closed for emergency response and all disabled vehicles were removed.
The department said at 5:15 p.m. that no people remained stranded on the highway and there were fewer than 20 vehicles "left to be removed from the interstate before plow trains will come through to remove snow and ice from the travel lanes.”
The 50-mile closure in the Fredericksburg area was first triggered Monday morning by a big-rig accident and vehicles stalling in the freezing temperatures....
Actually it's high heat that kills electric. So snow shouldn't be a problem, as long as one isn't using the electrical system to heat the vehicle. That's where the down sleeping bags would come in.
Googling "how long will tesla heater work on full charge" shows other results, but it sounds like electric heat will last longer than gasoline heat.
A Tesla weak point - they can't be towed and must be carried.
That's a bit odd. I wonder why. Google sez, this is true of most if not all electric cars. It has to do with the way the electric car "transmissions" work. If towed, the tranny will soon overheat and self-destruct, resulting in large repair bills not covered by warranty. I suppose this may also mean that one cannot depend on being able to re-charge the battery by coasting down a long mountain road. Would have to check on that. I would think that some electric car mfg might want to enable a transmission disconnect so that towing could be possible, but so far none seem to do that.
As for heat, the estimates I've seen for various electric cars range from three to 36 hours. Depending on the outside temps, of course. Keeping in mind that you'll still want to be able to drive the darn thing after the road is cleared, I'd still recommend using thermal isolation (down sleeping bag/clothing) to stay alive in a major snow jam, like recently occurred in Virginia.

Links, like I provided, please. "three" makes zero sense. One can run the heater AND drive for longer than that. Even if you did read it I'm surprised that you'd share such obvious goofiness with us.
Well, I'm not a big fan of rat rods, either. I prefer restorations that continue the original concept. However, the ratted out DJ-5 USPS Jeep is pretty good. Sadly the most attractive vehicle in the article - the "Modern Rat Rod" - doesn't actually exist. Perhaps someone will try to make it. Could start a trend.

Addendum: It guess it's a rat rod thing that the front wheels/suspension have to be hanging several feet in front of the rest of the thing. I'd at least hang a cow catcher in front.
Or, for shits and grins, you could hang Lauren Boebert in front.
