Hey Guys I need a little help with identifying what several fuses control. This is a weird situation…but here goes.
I’ve got a 2020 AT4 that the truck is loaded. I really doubt there’s much of anything that didn’t come on the truck and this is sorta why I’m asking about fuses. Tuesday I drop truck off to get AC system serviced at a small independent shop. I get a call today informing me the owner had been out all week due to coming down with Covid. The guy tells me that they hadn’t been able to get my truck in to work on it but said they would get to it 1st thing Monday. After getting off the phone I decided I’m going to pick it up and take the truck somewhere else. When I get there and ask for the keys.
The young technician actually was shaking and I could tell he was extremely nervous. I didn’t remember him having any conditions when I was there several days earlier. I get my keys and as pulling out I noticed that the dash was not working 100% the gauges were but none of information was showing. I immediately turned around to go back. I asked the young tech that I just got the keys from what’s up. He said he had no idea, they had worked on truck. I leave, get a little ways up road and notice I'm down a half tank of gas also and the phone charger in center console is not charging. It's kind of surprising but I figured maybe it just popped a fuse. Anyways I get home and start looking. It looks like there were 3 fuses missing.

F13 - EXP PTO/SEO
F8 - RSE/THEFT DTRN
F9 - PEPS/DSM

I knew that the truck had a theft deterrent system, so I stick a fuse in it and dash information comes on.

I truly believe the guy that works for owner has at minimum been driving the truck while the owner was out sick but pulling Theft Deterrent fuse has got me rattled.
I’m not 100% certain if it should have fuses in all locations that I mentioned above but if anyone could share some information as to what they are for and maybe some thoughts on why you think the fuses went missing…
 

I won't be much help, but you can look in the fuse slot most times and see if there are terminals. Usually, if there is an empty slot, the fuse label will say "Not Used" and no terminals in that slot.

I can't see any reason anything will let the magic smoke out if you put a fuse in the empty slots. Just follow the label for amperage size.
