Default Fuse Question

Both of my lights are out in the visor mirrors. I checked the manual but didn't find any obvious answer. I am thinking it's the fuse b/c both lights are out. What type of fuse do I need and where does it go in the fuse box? Thanks.

I'd be surprised if they're independently fused. Most likely they're fused with something else. Any other things not working? Your manual should provide some insight. When did they last work? Are you sure it isn't just the lamps?

They didn't work when I bought it here recently. One of the power outlets on the dash isn't working as well. I did find that fuse in the manual but didn't find anything about the visor lights that jumped out at me.

Also, the dome light doesn't work when I press it, but it does work when the switch near the headlights is rotated up.

Sounds to me like you need to go get a cheap meter or a test like and get out there and check all of your fuses.

I would check the Cigar fuse.
Other than that, if it aint a fuse....I would say you could have an issue with a wiring connector up behind the headliner since both the vidor lights and dome light connectors are up behind there??
The dome light switch could also be bad because mine will light up even without the key in the ignition. If I get some time I'll check the manual out for ya
