Blown Fuses #2 and #8 (85 740 GLE Turbo DIESEL) 700 1985

Try this input from Green Book Section 3 Schematics are in body manual.
Fuse #2
#2 covers Hazard Warning Flasher
#2 covers High Beam Flash trough fuses 17 and 18.
#2 also controls central locking.
It is always live as long as battery is connected.
Fuse #8 is only live in Ignition switch I and II positions.
#8 covers directional indicators.
#8 also covers the glow plug relay.
#8 also covers the fuel shutoff on the injection pump.
#8 also covers overdrive relay solenoid.

My observation is that the thing both have in common is the directional/hazard filaments so if it is just one problem, that would be it. I would look at the front and rear bulbs and flasher to see if they or the wires are shorted.

Also, central locking is the second relay from left, front row toward the cabin, next to the white release hook for the fuse relay tray. It is a change over type relay with 85&86 coil, 30 the common, 87a the normally connected, and 87 the normally open. Any of the three relays to the right of it is the same type relay.
