The attached shows where the fuses are located. There should be a card with the fuse box showing location, size and function of each fuse.

The bulbs are cheap. Even if it looked good I would try another one before I took everything out of the glovebox and moved it out of the way to access the fuses. I just bought a couple from Rock Auto for about $3 each - $10 delivered.

Grab a digital multimeter and keep measuring until you find the spot where you don't see 12V anymore.
