Default Nissan help

Well for some reason my dash lights, fog lights, and my rear parking lights do not come on anymore. My headlights work the turn signals work. The rear break lights work. But the other stuff will not come on. I checked the fuses and one of them was blown so i changed it. But the lights still do not come on. Does anyone know what chould cause the problem?

Did you check the dimmer? Also if you tore the dash apart and didn't plug in all the wires the interior lights won't come on. Had this happen after I swapped harnesses from auto to manual.

make sure it is turned to bright not dim.

Could be a fuse again. If you have a small short it could have popped the fuse again.

I replaced the fuse but still nothing. It did not blow. The lights never even can on for a second.

you should do a quick check of your bulbs too. may sound like a stupid idea, but its just an idiot check. a lot of my lights were out and that was the first thing i did and, bam, fixed the problem.
