Hey guys and gals,

I just got done uninstalling my tv, and installed my stock 2008 nissan altima head unit(type s with convenience package). Now the problem im running into is that my cars tail light wont turn on when light and everything is turned on. But when i hit the brakes the brake lights light up.... If anyone has any advice please help me out..


Thanks

very simple. you blew a fuse when removing the old unit. there are 2 main fuse boxes. one is under the dash by your left foot and the other is in the main engine compartment. if you are unable to read the fuse locations simply go fuse by fuse till you find it. if all fuses are good then go to the main engine compartment right behind the battery and start going through those. the reason your brakes work but not your lights is they are on a different fuse.

Hey, I just checked and couldnt find any fuses that look blown, is it hard to notice a blown fuse, or should i just replace the ones that are for the tail lights?
