No side/corner lights or warning chime

[arctic_mark]

After a worrying "ffzztt" sort of sound from under the dash, the front side lights (corner lights, or clearance lamps according to Nissan?) and that annoying warning chime that you've left your lights on no longer operate! Everything else electrical on my 1994 Canada spec. SE V6 seems to be operating OK. All the fuses in the fuse block check out OK. Am I missing something obvious or are there some hidden fuses somewhere? The garage manual wiring diagrams are doing my head in!

 

Any advice would be great

Thanks

I'll be watching this thread.... Same problem here... Left my lights on all day at school. Still started no problem though

Went through everything more thoroughly last night rather than just thinking "Oh Crap" and dashing off to work.

 

The full tally was no corner lights, no chime when lights left on (but chime worked when keys left in ign.), no tail lights but brake, indicator and reverse lights ok, no illumination on instrument cluster, and my CB was dead too.

 

Turns out that the new snorkel install I'd done a couple of weeks ago had caused the +ive wire to the front left corner light to rub through and ground on the frame, continuously blowing the fuse (lower row, furthest right) in the fuse block. Managed to miss that when I checked them through at midnight the night before! So traced it back to the snorkel install after watching 3 fuses blow in succession and there you go!

 

So yeah, I was totally missing something obvious!!
