Do you have an "Alt" gauge or just the "idiot" light?
These fuses are for if you have the factory wired in "Alt" gauge, as these wires are live all the time, so the fuse is short protection for them.
Truck wiring for the "idiot" light will not have these wires or fuses.

Mine has the dummy lights. But my stepdad had installed a gauge.
