Default Theft question

What do the fuses below the main fuse box control?
I went to get my car off the street just now and i found my hood slightly open.

The reason it wouldn't close was because the lid to that box was off. And when I unarmed my alarm, it indicated that it had gone off.

I imagine that someone was trying to cut the wires for the alarm.
Anyone help me out so I know for sure?

It's just a fuse box, it doesn't say what each fuse controls.

Yeah i'm getting real sketch about having my car now. I think I might take it back home.

the main fuse box in the engine bay controls the current to many different wiring harnesses throughout the car. you can actually disconnect a fuse that will cause your alarm to be disengaged. thats why an alarm specialist has tricks to prevent that from happening.

That is an effective way, however, if they want a car bad enough, criminals will just tow it away....

Oh, I'm in LA right now at school. I feel pretty safe with my car back in Santa Rosa. But I agree, things are getting sketchy everywhere.
