I have a 94'Q.I have noticed out of the blue my overhead interior lights as well as the lights on the doors don't work anymore also when the door is open that chime has stopped,my question is I hope its just a fuse but I cant seem to find it.Its real weird because the day before the lights stopped I had to put the spare on one of the tires because of a flat.Can someone please help me out.:help

the fuses on the J are right in front of the battery under the hood. if the Q is anything like this there should be a diagram underneath the lid detailing what each fuse is.

Q45 fuses are located on the dash above the brake release behind a pull off panel. There are also some in a box behind the battery under the hood. Each spot has a diagram that identifies what each fuse does. If it blows after you replace it, I've had limited success troubleshooting shorts. An auto electric shop can run those things down pretty quickly for reasonable cost, in my experience.

I just checked on my car and the fuse you want is under the hood, a 10 amp marked room lights(nice translation).

Do you have this problem with all doors or just the driver's door?? If it's with only one door you may have a bad pin switch, or one that's not tightened correctly.
