What are the chances of some one else's solution being applicable to yours?

Check fuses.
Start tracing presence/absence of voltage with the aid of a wiring diagram.
The wiring diagram will help narrow down areas to check if you know certain group of items are not getting juice.

If I understand your statement correctly, you have no power coming to the fuse box by the driver's left knee. That box is powered by fuse-box in the engine compartment, located above the front left wheel. Some of the fuses there are bolted in and one can not pull them out.

Best thing to do is to get a wiring diagram and trace 12v lines.
