Sunroof, Visor vanuty lights and map lights non-op

2000 Maxima. Sunroof, lights in both visors and overhead map lights do not work. The light that comes on when opening the doors work fine. Is everything that is mentioned that doesn't operate on the same circuit?
I looked for a fuse in the cabin and under the hood but could not locate one.

Were you in the middle of doing some "work" to lights when this first happened?

Assuming the same for 00;in my 02 left of the drivers knee theres a fuse panel with a 10 amp fuse labeled 'room light' iirc. look for that fuse and report back.

I bought the car with this defect a couple of weeks ago.
When the wifeb returns from the market I'll check for that fuse and let you know.
Thanks.

Ok I checked the 10amp fuse, it's good.
I'm wondering if there is a place to check for power to that whole area after the fuse?

The sunroof and the lights do not share the same fuse, so I think that checking wires is in order.

The wires that go up to the sunroof and the lights runs up the driver's side windshield pillar. There are no connectors in the pillar for this. The connectors are under the dash on the one end of the harness and up in the roof for the other end.

Because of all the different lights in the roof and the sun roof, there are 7 different connectors in the roof. I would focus on the single connector under the dash. I would also remove the windshield pillar cover and make sure that no one cut the harness.
