Heat fan fuse location?

I was away for a couple of weeks over Xmas and when I got home the battery was flat on my beast. I gave her a charge and she seemed to come back fine (though delaying getting her out was frustrating after 16 days in a Passat Diesel 1.9). However, the heater/AC fan does not work. All other climate control functions work and the display indicates what speed the fan is running at, there is just no blow!

So I went to check the fuses. Well according to the card by the fuses the heater fan/blower is fuse no. 76. Well I can't find fuse 76 and I want to check it before I call the stealer... anyone have a clue?

BTW, she was in my locked garage while I was away, so I didn't lock her up and I am wondering if she didn't go into a sort of power save mode because of it - I vaguely recall something about them going into power save mode after a certain period of no use. Just trying to establish if the battery is on the way out (has been okay since).

If I remember correctly, there are two fuse boxes, one in the glove compartment and one in the trunk. I think the higher numbered fuses are in the trunk on the right hand side behind the little door that looks like the one that hides the CD changer.

Yeah, I checked there, but there is another fuse map in there, which doesn't indicate that any of the heater fan fuses are back there, although there is one big 40amp fuse back there that doesn't seem to be on the map, so that may be it, but it was okay.
