Greetings.

I have a 2013 Nissan Frontier V6. I installed a factory
wiring hitch and harness a couple months ago. Everything
was working without any problems.

Today, I was finishing wiring up a trailer and was using
my truck to test the wiring. My dumb ass turned the
headlights on before all of the marker lights were wired
up, and I'm pretty sure something shorted out.

I have no power in the connector. I checked the relays I
installed with the factory kit, and the relay for the
headlights is firing/clicking, but there is no power
going into the switch side of the relay.

I'm pretty sure I blew a fuse *somewhere*, but I cannot
find it. I checked all of the fuses under the dash in the
two fuse panels and all of them tested positive (but
something could have been out of view that I didn't see).

Any ideas? Where does the power for this relay come from?
In one of the fuse panels, it indicated that there were
some fuses meant for the trailer (but nothing specific to
marker lights). I tested all of the fuses anyway, I even
took the top off those weird specialized fuses and
everything tested good.

Thanks for any ideas...

Aren’t there two fuse and relay boxes under the hood you
can check. Are other circuits working properly?

Good Luck.. Don S..

I checked both fuse boxes under the hood.

Everything else is working properly, just not this one
line.

How about the fuses in the IPDM E/R (engine room)?

Where are these fuses? I've checked all that I could find,
if there are more I'm missing I haven't been able to find
them.
