alright... i know theres other posts regarding this and i've looked at them all.... but i havent found a solution.

This morning while putting a new bulb into the transfer switch all the lights went out.

Checked the fuses and nothing is blown.

Head unit is good, clock, compass and all are good... but everything is out and its starting to worry me. any help?

And no Alex, im not going to pay someone to fix it if i know its a simple fix and its something i overlooked

When you turn on your headlights do the compass and clock screens dim? Are your tail lights working properly? If not, then you most definitely have blown a fuse. I would suggest double checking (and maybe just replacing) fuse #61 (10A fuse) in the engine compartment fuse box.

Well, the bad news is that both seat warmers are on the same fuse (Fuse #28 [15A] in the interior fuse box behind coin tray). That means if one seat works and the other does not then you must have a loose connection somewhere. Have you been doing work around the switches and possibly pulled the harness out? The seat warmers are on their own circuit so they wouldn't be affected by the illumination fuse blowing or anything of the sort.

i tear into the centre console quite frequently... the seat warmer fuse is still in tact. i have yet to fully test wether or not the seat actually warms or mayhaps its just hte light (which im hoping it is) itll just mean another trip to the wreckers.... and yes i yanked the harness out and plugged it back in this morning to double check. alas... no luck

so you lied when you told us you checked the fuses?
