i have a 04 rx8 and the lights where the radio is wont light up nor the back light on the steering wheel where the cruise control wont light up either just wondering what this could be and how can i fix it, i use this site alot so i did try to search it but came up with no results

 

Most likely a blown fuse. Check your manual for the right fuse, And pull it to see if its blown. (The metal inside the plastic will be split)

 

There are two fuse boxes. One in your engine bay and one under your steering wheel by the way.

 

yea i have the smart fuses or whatever that is were they light up and the insides not blown didnt know there was interior light fuse in engine also to kinda narrow it down with more issues the lights near the door handles are not lit up either 'not the courtsey door or the lights on when you leave the lights on with car off
