I've read that two relays and 40A fuses are behind left headlight in accessible by removing the front bumper.
Can anyone confirm please?
Also is this a common problem?
Check few posts above for fuse location in engine bay

Update
As F67 is common to both sides, it must be ok if power is getting through to the left side screen defrosts.
I can confirm the 2x 40A fuses and 2x relays are in a box concealed behind the front bumper, beneath the left headlight and in front of the left front wheel arch liner.
While car was in for a new radiator fan earlier this week the mechanic managed with difficulty to get to the relays and fuses by loosening and twisting the wheel arch liner. And bruised knuckles! He said fuses looked ok and swapped the left and right relays.
But no change, the defrost is still working on the left side of the screen so relays must be ok. Looks like I'd need to get in with a multimeter.
Anyone had similar?
