need help to find the right fuse

[golf-sib]

thanks  fuse number 7 has blown and typically thats one out the replacement set that has been used.  it seems that this is the speedometer fuse. but on the cars paper stuck to the fuse panel, it says its for the reverse lights are they run of the same fuse then

Could do, when my lights went in the car so did central locking, no fuse lab belled as central locking, so when I changed light fuse which was blown out so did the locking mechanism. Them diagrams are as clear as mud.

Did you check the wires on top of the reverse switch? 

[lissy7]

wires checked and switch changed,
but i wonder if the wires going to the actual bulbs have got pinched or a wire has got pulled out.
as all the other lights works but several have very sensitive wiring slightest movement and the rear passenger light fail.

also can find out why the boot internal light doesnt work and cant gain access behind it to check that wiring

Check all the contacts and the plug in the bulb holder 

The boot light - does you rear washer work? Even if id does see this :

    thanks i wonder if that means when the boot was replaced the person didnt wire the boot up properly as the boot symbol doesnt come up on the dash.
that link looks good

it would be nice to have a few weeks without  the car having a new issue

Some cars don't have the boot light in the clocks mine doesn't
