Do your headlights pop up?

Your Alternator fuse might've popped.
It's the 75 Amp one.

Check your headlight switch. I had a similar issue with my s13 coupe. Took my headlamp switch apart and cleaned the contacts in it. BAM everything works. There is a write up about this issue. Another thing to check is a small white box located under your fuse box on the driver side kick panel. Forgot what its called but its some sort of timer I believe. It burns out when people install aftermarket stereo decks and accidentally cross wires. I may be wrong so don't quote me on this. There is a write up on that also. Just search.
