View Full Version : Blown fuse??? OR not?

Two days ago I noticed that my left rear blinker was not blinking. When I place the brakes on....the lights light up, but when I put on the blinkers or the caution lights or just lock the doors....all lights light up except for the left blinkers (brake lights). Someone said it maybe the flasher??? I'm not sure, however I tried to go to the fuse box and find the culprit. I ran out of time and when I went to go out that evening noticed that now the lights on the gearbox, the blinkers on the dashboard (left and right) and the interior lights are not coming on.

Can someone help me out? I've tried to search in the manual with no help so is there any other guide to help me figure out what fuse could be the problem? I am all about DIY so I want to try to solve this problem myself if I can.

Thank you in advanced

Hmmm ... how many miles? Warranty issue hopefully... I would say it sounded just like a bulb that was blown and not a fuse but with the dash lights and all it sounds a little deeper than that ...

my dad had a similar problem with his charger but the stoplight in the trunk wasnt working and the trunk wont open with the remote, also the lights on the a/c controls didnt work, they replaced some wiring under warranty.

I just had the same problem with my car as far as the light not blinking. The rear blinker light has two filaments in it so if the blinky one dies it will still light up but cause problems. I changed my rear blinky light and it was fixed. as far as the other problems i have no idea.
Oh yeah your trunk problem could be caused by the fuse that controls the lock mechanism for the trunk, check the fuse if thats not it take it to the shop

I have been going through this same problem, no dome lights, no vanity lights, no lights for dual zone or shifter lights. The trunk will not open by remote on key or in the car dash. The dealer had it Friday morn kept it over the weekend because they said it had to have a new inst cluster and the milage was burned in. Well I called today and they told me...ah still didnt fix the problem. I brought it home tonight...anyone else get this and how was it solved. Thanks!

I have exactly the same problems...exactly..so, no dome lights, no dual climate lights, no shifter lights, no blinker lights (blinkers DO work however) and no keyless trunk poppage.

Must be a fuse. Which fuse.

I have to run so I'll make this quick, this very same thing happened to me when my car was at about 25k miles, I brought it in as I thought it was the fuse and it turns out there was a wiring problem. Bring it to your dealership as it should (hopefully still) be covered under warranty. They didn't charge me anything but I had to drop my car off for a few days.

It is fuse #17 in the trunk. I had this problem as well. I had to do some research on another forum to get the answer. It is my understanding that the LXs had a change on this fuse from 05 to 06. I hope this helps. Do not let them get into your wiring. By the way you dont happen to own a Midnight Blue do you? Because that would make four of us in the same post with this problem.

Kenney Hemi is correct, it is fuse #17, and if your car will not start, it is fuse #13, which some how ties into the ignition fuse. acually found both out in the manual, and at the time I had this problem, I was working for dodge in Jacksonville, fla. No longer there now.
