Question Fuse mystery

Just bought a '84 911, inside lights are not working, when I went to change
the fuse it was "yellow" . All the auto parts places are amazed. They have
red, white, and blue. They all say they have never seen yellow? What is
the deal?

Thanks for the help.

I have an 88 Carrera and it has a few Yellow fuses. They are 5 amp. I tried everywhere when one of mine blew, but couldn't find them anywhere. My wrech and the Dealer told me to use the 8 amp. I can't remember the color, but I think the white is 8 amp, the red is 16 amp, and the blue is 25 amp. Just read on the side of it for the correct amperage.

Guys:
Any dealer ( ! ) that advise 8A instead of the required 5A is an idiot and opens himself up to a lawsuit.....
