so today i decided to finally change my light bulbs that light up the clock in my 03 g35 coupe and i made the stupid mistake of leaving the wires long enough that they would touch and when i connected it all the lights from the climate botton and cd player/radio bottons went out as well and my friend who was driving behind me pointed out that my tail lights and license plate lights are out too along with the side lights that are on the headlights anyone please help me? i checked all the fuses and all seem to be working fine and my friend just said that the relay might be out which i hope not. anyone any suggestion? i would appriciate it thank you

 

There is another fuse box next to the battery, on the fender side on the corner. Same thing happened to me when I was working on my headlights the other day doing a retrofit and some wires made contact. There is a 10amp fuse on the fuse box labeled "brake lights" I think, that's the one that was out.

 

yeah i seen that one but i checked them all and they all seem to be working properly. except the relay one which i cant test. but ill have to double check all fuses one by one taking them out

 

Nope. The one he's referring to is different. Most likely you have to remove the battery cover to get to it. I burnt that fuse a good 6 times so far doing my headlights, taillights & side marker retrofit lol

It's the first one on top I think. 10 amp fuse. If you can't find it let me know & i'll post pictures.
Like i said, removing the battery cover will show where it sits. I was near impossible for me to uncover that fuse box without have the battery OR the cover off.

 

Quick google & I found this. It's the uncovered fuse box in the corner. It's very well hidden when the battery cover is on



& this. It's fuse 71 I believe. You can see it in the picture above 1st red fuse

 

^^ Yeap, that's the one I was talking about. The good thing was that there was a spare fuse on the fuse box by the kick panel, so I used that one to replace the burned fuse. I may have to go out and get some more 10amp fuses though, I may be burning them again if I keep messing with retrofits!

 

ahahaha, Happening to me twice when im doing the side markers and a good 5 times when I was doing the headlights retrofit.

I bought switchback LED bulbs and they kept on burning fuses everytime i turn them on, they turned out to be standard type were 04 headlights used CK type sockets.
