Lightbulb No Parking lights or Instrument panel lights in my eg.
Well I have an eg hatch and i was driving back to my house one night with a few friends when all of my lights went out (park lights and instrument panel). I still have headlights and the turn signals and hazards and brake lights work but I have no park lights. I checked all the fuses replaced the switch but nothing gives I still have no light anyone have any suggestions?

Fuse #10, 15amp. Pick up a little yellow fuse tester/puller device and a bunch of automotive fuses at Wal-mart for just under $10 in the combo tester+fuse kit, good to keep around.

The night it happened we all stopped at a gas station and looked under the hood at the fuses and I checked all the other ones the next day it was all good and yes I replaced the combo switch.

So is it under the passenger side on the drivers side (the traditional location) or would it be under the dash on the passenger side by the ecu or is everyone reffering to underneath the hood by the battery?
