CM Which fuse is the one to the DIC?

-My C5's Driver Information Center (on the right side of the panel) is completely inoperative and dead.
First, the info on the bottom panel has gone crazy - and then turned off completely.
The six buttons (Fuel, Gages, Trip, Options, E/M, Reset) are not working at all.
Please, tell me which fuse/relay is responsible for the buttons of the DIC? Will deeply appreciate a helping hand!

CM C5 99

-Thank you for your interest to help me, dear c4c5specialist!
It is a 1999 Corvette and the Driver Information Center is completely dead. I checked on the booklet and found no fuse related with the DIC.
Please, help!

HI there,
You have 2 fuses.
Both are under the passenger side toe board.
Minifuse #19 and #25 are you power sources in.
Personally, though, it would be suggested to remove the negative battery cable for 5 mins.
That will do the same thing, without a risk of spiking computers with a voltage surge.
Allthebest, c4c5

-Thank you very much for your prompt reply, c4c5 !
I'll check the fuses you taught me about - and later on will let you know.
Appreciated the suggestion of removing the negative cable, in order to avoid electricity's pick.
May God bless you,
Valente45.
