Taillights and interior lights not working...fuses work...HELP!!!

Hey guys,

My brake/taillights do not work and all my interior lights do not work. I checked all the fuses and can't seem to find the problem. I got a ticket for it and need to fix it asap. Let me know if you guys have any ideas.

Did you check all the fuses in the engine bay as well?

Check fuses 13 & 14 underneath of the driver side footwell. It's a 10Amp fuse.

FYI, there are three fuse boxes. One under the steering wheel (footwell) and two in the engine bay (right and left sides, front).

Congrats. Don't you get excited when you figure out a problem. I love it. It's better than not having problems at all.

I have same problem...

Hello fellow Maxima drivers. I am experiencing the same problem with my 05 Maxima. I have not been able to drive past sundown for 5 days. I now understand what I need too do. My question is:the fuse box on the passenger side right, but which direction do you go by to change the correct fuse? what is the front or the back of the fuse box( hood to trunk or trunk to hood? and what would be considered the left side, bottom or top row?. I am sorry for being dense, but I have no one to help me. I would hate too cause more damage. I am appreciative of any help. Thank You Kindly, tiffany
