    weird thing happening now..lighting problem...

    ok on my SEi all the lights work save for the driver front side light by the fender...
    and this is the weird part....

    my head lights work, my BRAKE lights work when you press the brake pedal but I have no "running" lights...like nothing lights up on the dash....no tail lights....no lights on the sides or anything...like my headlights come on nice and strong and high beams all work and everything....

    anybody give me some ideas of what to look for...like even with the head lights on theres no dash illumination or tail lights of any sort....would it be as simple as a burned fuse? or is there a relay that contriols just the running lights?

    thanks guys

    Check all of the fuses, remember there are 2 fuse boxes, one under the dash and one under the hood on the passenger side. Why post if you havent checked the fuses?!
