Recently my back lighting on my instrument panel (speedometer, etc) stopped working on my '99 Altima. I am hoping its a fuse. The diagram on the fuse panel cover doesnt say which fuse it is, nor does the owners manual. The fuse panel cover says for systems not indentified contact your dealer. I just called my dealer's service dept and asked the guy if he knew, he said no. I asked if he could check, he again said NO (basturd) you got to bring in the car. Yeah right. Like I am going to pay them big $$$ to change a fuse. I could just check each and every fuse, but was hoping some one would know which it is. It ISNT the same one as the dome light, as that works, and its fuse seems fine. I also checked the second fuse panel under the hood, doesnt seem to be there.


If anyone cares to know what very "helpful" dealer this is, it is City Avenue Nissan (formerly Dunphy) in Drexel Hill PA.

Pull each fuse and check for continuity with an ohmmeter.

Cheaper than going to a dealer.

I struggled with that problem in my '95. Its documented on Altima forums as well. The whole dashboard drops out at night and then flutters for a while but it always came back after 30 or so seconds. Never did find out the exact cause but I feel your pain.

Thanks
