Default Where's the fuse for the cab/dome lights?

Howdy folks. I've got a 94 1500 with cab lights. A little while ago my dome light and my cab lights quite working. I looked through all the fuses (both in the cab and under the hood) and didn't find one labeled for cab or dome lights. Any suggestions guys?

look on the driverside of the dash, i almost positive it's going to be the one on the bottom right next to the main shutoff " the yellow popout fuse. dont ask what amp it is because most people dont stick to factory amp fuses and just stick whatever they have in there.

its going to be on the bottom line of fuses in the dash just get a pair of needle nose and pull fuses untill you find the one thats blown. Just makesure you put them back in when you pull out to check and dont pull a ****load of fuses all at once and dont remember where they came from.

Your owners manual, IIRC, will tell you what fuses do what as far as that side panel goes. Find the appropriate one, and replace it, even if it looks good. Sometimes the fuses "blow" internally so close to one side that its hard to see.

Also, audioman, check the fuse on the back of your touch screen. Most newer head units have a fuse on the back, make sure its not blown to.

That should be run direct to the battery with the use of an inline fuse.

on a 2001 ram, the fuse block is behind a cover on the drivers side where the door jam is. the dome lamp and radio fuse is fuse 12. Here is a picture of the layout
