"Puddle' lights V70-XC70 2005

Just bought a used 2005 XC70. Love the way it drives... trying to get a few small issues resolved. Have found that the "puddle" lights (located on the bottom of side view mirrors on each door) don't work on either side. After a little difficulty, found out how to remove bulbs, checked bulbs with VOM (checked good), checked socket for voltage with door open/door closed (lights on, lights off, after unlocking car with remote, etc) and don't get any voltage. Owners manual doesn't give enough detail to know which fuse feeds these bulbs. Can anyone tell me the correct fuse # and the fuse box location? Don't notice any other electrial functions not working so if fuse feeds puddle lights and other functions may not be fuse. If it is not the fuse, any other ideas on what the problem could be? BTW, have "wiggled" wires to socket at mirror, feeding to mirror and feeding to door to try to see if there is a broken wire and bulb doesn't even flicker (so don't think it is a broken wire especially since bulb doesn't work on either door).

Thanks to anyone that can give me a few clues.
