It's way up under the driver's side dash knee pad. It's VERY hard to get to, let alone even see.

You'll need to get on your back on the sill plate and floor board, and look straight up and towards the firewall in the outer corner. You'll see the fuse panel.

An owner's manual, service manual and AIM will all be invaluable resources. All three are readily available.

All the fuses looks okay.

So the dash lights are on the same switch as the head lights?
I just got the car, and I dont now how things should work if nothing was wrong ..

Same switch but it controls things separately. Just because the headlights turn on does not mean the dash lights go on.


Front part controls the dash lights.
