Problem when swapping out my interior door lights.....

I was swapping out the under door lights for some nice white LED's; got one done and it was nice so I went to do the other side and I guess when I was taking the bulb out I grounded the connection by accident and the new bulb wouldn't turn on. I then went to look at the other one and that one went out too...along with my interior lights, glove box light, mirror lights, and I think thats it. Everything else in the car works, so I've been looking through every fuse but they all look good. I checked the fuse box on the drivers side kickpanel and the small one in front of the battery. Any ideas as to which fuse I blew, if it even was one (it has to be since all those lights went out along with it)....

Thanks ahead of time, this is such a pain...I think I'm going to have a nightmare about fuses tonight.

hmm, this happened to me too. i couldnt find which fuse blew, so i took it to the dealer and they replaced the fuse for free (after i put the stock bulbs back in..).

i searched my *** off after posting the thread...one single person had the same problem and tried disconnecting the battery and then reconnecting it and it worked.

So i tried it and it worked too, funny thing though, my father thinks hes a regular know-it-all / mr. fix-it so hes messing with the fuses and the dimmer and at the exact second i reconnect the battery, all the lights come back on and he yells "I GOT IT! IT WAS THE DIMMER, YOU SWITCHED IT OFF!" His high only lasted a second as I explained to him that he couldnt have been dimming anything without the battery connected and I reconnected it just as he was playing with it.

At least its fixed, too many damn fuse boxes in these cars in such stupid places. I wonder sometimes why the hell did nissan make everything a$$-backwards; 3 unreachable fuseboxes, to change a bulb you need to get under the car and take the splash guards off, and seatbelts that are in competition with the rear view mirror as to who can make the most annoying noises for longer.....
