Electrical woes and why I hate moving.

Electrical woes and why I hate moving.
I went to lock my car tonight and noticed my key fob wasn't working. Thinking that after years and years of use the battery in the fob was getting weak I went outside to get closer to the car, still nothing. Unlocked the car (With the key, long time since I've done that!) and noticed the dome light didnt come on. Fired it up. Nothing works. Radio lights and what I'd describe as the instrument panel default backlight come on. As for the instruments themselves it shows no oil or gas but good battery voltage (lol?). Read out says low brake and oil pressure.
Now, I'm fairly sure (and hoping) that this is just a relay or a fuse as the car fires right up with no codes. That brings me to another problem and why I'm asking here. I'll be leaving for the airport this morning at 330 for business. I really don't have time to go check anything because I'm still not packed. Further my owners manual and all that good stuff is packed away in moving boxes and tucked away in a storage unit. The joys of moving...
Would anyone be so kind as to post up the diagram and hopefully point me at the right relay/fuse? I'll be calling my brother in the morning and giving him the instructions after I land so hopefully I can have a running car when I get back Monday.
Big thanks in advance to anyone who can help!

Sounds like you blew fuse #8 in the fuse box in the panel near the passenger feet - it is behind the kick panel (and getting the cover off can be an issue).
I can't put up the diagram, but when he opens the box he will see two big relays in the center left location. In the center location is a bank of fuses and #8 is the 10amp fuse at the top of the first bank of fuses to the right of the two large relays.
