Hey I’m new here brought my Nissan qashqai 2011 just 6 days ago. Day 4 we noticed one of the interior lights didn’t work so hubby tried to take it out to replace it. All interior lights stopped working and car won’t start. Dash lights, radio and heater/ac still working fine. Think it maybe a fuse but the ones I have checked all seem fine. Any help would be appreciated as currently dealership aren’t helping and I’m stuck with no car.
Many thanks

Welcome to this forum.

There may be more fuses than you've discovered - check out the handbook.

Thank you for the reply, we’ve checked the ones in the engine bay as well.
No luck so far

As far as I’m aware there isn’t a fuse box behind glovebox in the J10 and manual only shows 3 one below the steering wheel and 2 in the engine bay

Thanks for that, but doesn’t actually tell me which one belongs to the lights. I’ve checked all the electrical fuses under the dash and the 2 fuses in the 1st fuse box in the engine. I’m unable to access the 2nd fuse box in the engine so can’t check that one.

see if these help, check all the fuses on the drivers side fuse box.

Thank you that’s the diagram I found last night got hubby to check f4, F5, f8 and f9 and the entire bottom row. He says they all look fine.
I’m completely stubbed, can’t see why the car won’t start from a bloody bulb blowing.
