Which fuse for interior door lights?

I was wondering if someone could tell me which fuse do the lights on the inside of the doors run from? I checked all of the fuses in the fuse "box" inside the car and didn't find any burnt out, I'm guessing its one of the ones under the hood but I can't for the life of me find out where it is. I have looked through the Haynes manual many many times and have looked over the wiring diagrams for the interior lights and checked the fuses the diagram shows and have found nothing. Any ideas?

Is your dimmer switch turned all the way up?

No its not the dimmer , I dont think the dimmer controls those lights anyway, they are the lights ON the door panel, the ones that only light up when the door is opened.

Got it... did you try swapping bulbs (front to rear even might be a quick thing to try if some of them work and others don't).

Even if the fuse doesnt look blown it may still be. I'd stick a new 7.5 amp fuse in there anyway to see if it does the trick

Hey thnx to all who chimed in, I will see if replacing that fuse helps I don't think that is the issue because the dome light works ok and so does the map light. I'm thinking there is a relay somewhere that allows those lights to come on only when the door is opened, I may have shorted that out, anyone have any thoughts on that?

ps sickblackmax I think your problem may be fuse #18 all of the center console lights are controled by that fuse.

pss tj max SICK RIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I soooooo wanted a black max!!!
