***HELP*** 03 maxima lights went out!

Hey guys,

I just changed my courtesy door lights to leds and then when went to try and change the clearance lights they didnt work. After I tried installing them in the headlights, all my sidemarkers, interior gauge and rear tail lights dont come on anymore. The bulbs aren't burned either because I tried testing them back on the door and they worked. I think its some kind of fuse that may be burned but i have no idea how to get this fixed? can anyone help please?

btw my headlights and fogs still work, just the interior, sidemarkers, clerance lights, and tailights dont come on.

It has to be your fuse in your dash under the steering wheel.

You have to pop out the cover and look on the back and it should say what fuse and what each of them do and yes, you can replace it by getting one from the Autozone.

I am not sure about the 4th gen having the same fuse numbers as they would in the 5th gen. The fuse could of blown out cause you have tryed the wrong bulb in the wrong voltage socket or there could be a short.
