Default Ventilation fan has stopped (sometimes, not always!)

Not working at all, either with ignition or driven by the solar sunroof.

Looking in the manual there's a reference to a 40A fuse but the location is not at all clear (nor if I have a spare!)
(Standard type I have spares up to 30A but is this a different type?)

The manual says "There is also a 40 amp fuse for the heater blower in the electronics/relay box under the carpet in the front right footwell. In right-hand drive models the 60 amp fuse for the radiator fan is also accommodated there".

Does this actually mean the front passenger footwell, i.e. front left on a RHD car?
If so, does anyone have a picture to show the location, or is it obvious once I dive in? (under my nice new board supplied by Sean last year )

Edit: As noted later in the thread, sometimes it works, this is not a total failure.
