I removed the cover to the fuse box and there is no diagram telling me which fuse goes to what like there is supposed to be. Also, when I use these plastic tweezers to try to pull out a fuse it won't come out.
I have tried looking through the manual but it doesn't provide the diagram. I have also tried searching online but have not had any luck.

As a rule, Mazda is very good about providing the information for their cars. I am sure it is in the manual somewhere.
If you can't find it, perhaps a trip to the library will help. It doesn't cost anything to check.
As for the little plastic %26quot;tweezers%26quot;, they do suck don't they. Better to use a pair of needle-nosed pliers, or if you have a pair use some hemostats. They work very well.
If you choose this method, you should remove only one at a time, check it, and replace it. When you find the burned one, it is very easy to see.
As for on-line help, the information you need is very expensive, and costs the repair manual publishers dearly for the license to use it. The manufacturers won't give it away, and there aren't many who will pay for it, and then offer it on the %26quot;Net at no cost.
