Mitsubishi: Accessories don't work in "On" position

Is your alternator light on? If so, check the 100 amp main fuse. It could
also be one of the relays in the engine bay. I had the main fuse blow on my
98. If I turned on the headlights, the horn would sound and the lights
wouldn't come on. Took me a min to figure out that I blew the main fuse when
doing a turbo swap.

I didn't check the alternator light, but it looked like an 80 amp
alternator fuse was blown. I recently (about a month ago) had a bad
alternator replaced. Can I drive the car with this fuse blown until
tomorrow afternoon or is the alternator not recharging the battery?
Thank you for your help,
Chris

If it looks blown, replace it. It is a 2 buck part and is held in by two 10
mm bolts.Yes you can wait, but why? The battery will be draining and unless
you have yellow top optima, I wouldn't. You may drain an old battery past
it's life.

The big question is why did it blow? Did you do something? Stereo, or work
on the engine?

I live in a very rural area and need to drive my car until tomorrow
afternoon, that's the only time I can go to get a replacement. Probably
about an hour and a half worth of driving.

I can't think of any reason why it would have blown, that same morning
the seatbelt moved forward after I removed the key like it it suppose to
do, but after leaving it parked all day I drove it home to discover the
problem that I now have. The only work I've had done was about a month
ago on the alternator, it went out and had to be replaced. I would
think though that the fuse would have went out earlier though. Thank
you for your help,

Changing the alternator fuse worked. I almost made it to school when it
died. After school I crossed my fingers and checked the only auto parts
store in our small town and they had exactly what I needed. I got a
jump and it is back and running again. Thank you very much for your help,
