Don't ask why, but all the interior lights aren't controlled by fuses. It is controlled by a computer module.. All you need to do is disconnect the battery and reconnect it again.. It should work after that

did you find the fix? If you are looking for fuses they are behind the left kick panel

most likely the fuse. its the center 10A fuse on the 2nd row right below the fuse picker. just take the 10A spare fuse on the far right and pop it in.

Lol.. trust me guys.. I've personally ran into this problem TWICE with both of my G35s... And there aren't just 1 fuse box next to the kick pedal.. There are two more one located next to the battery under the hood and there's another one BEHIND the battery.

i had the same problem and it was my fuse. so you can try this first, then try the battery if it doesnt work.

The first thing i would do, is disconnect the battery, and wait 30 seconds, and connect it again. 95% that is the problem. Its that simple. I had the same problem, and checked EVERY fuse in the car, and in the engine bay. It was just a matter of disc the battery, like the poster a couple above me mentioned.

It depends. Check see if its JUST your domelight? Or is it domelight, doorlight, and the ignition light altogether.. If its all together? Then Just disconnect the battery and connect it back in 30 sec to 1 min.. If its JUST the domelight.. then you are gonna have to somehow find out where the fuse for the domelight is.. because it is NOT in any of the fuse boxes..

Most likely it will work after you disconnect your battery. Let us know what happen!
