91 Q's running lights out

[Power2theQ]

Hey, check this out: My Q's running light fuse (labeled ILL On the side of the fuse box i the cabin) was burned when I bought it, so I got a fresh one for it, ad it worked fine for a while. Every once in a while, the fuse would burn out again, so since I figured it was a short power surge, I put a 20 Amp(to replace the 10 Amp) in to solve the problem. Now the running lights hve stopped working and the fuse is untouched. I hooked up a multimeter to it and it showed that no current was running through it. Can anyone here tell me what might be burned out and how I can repair it?

Nissan selects a fuse that is 2-2.5 times the peak ampere draw. Obviously your reengineering has blown open a wiring connection.Measure the voltage going into fuse to make sure you have not blown a larger fuse upstream of the problem fuse.

Yeah, you treated the symptom and not the cause. Better start by inspecting all sockets, their wiring and bulbs. For the latter, OEM or Sylvania LL only!

Once they are known good, start tracing as Q45tech suggested.

Good luck and welcome to NICO!

Yeah, there's no current running through the jack for the fuse. I checked the box under the hood and the jack for the fuse labeled 'stop lamp' is out. Would I be correct in guessing that there's a connection under that jack that's out?

Well, the thing is, all of the rnning lights are out. The gage lights, the side lights, the yellow lights in the front, and worst of all, the brake lights, unless I hit the brakes.

That doesn't change anything as far as diagnosing the condition of the bulbs and sockets, then the wiring.
