Good Morning,

I purchased a 2019 Dodge Ram 1500 Rebel yesterday, and when i decided to take it out late lastnight to check out the lighting, I notices that the only lights that work on the interior, are the lights on the dash itself, and the dome lights when i push the on / off button. the radio screen itself worked, and the temp knob worked as far as pushing it, and seeing an amber light. other then that, nothing else works at all on the center console, nothing to the left or righto f the steering wheel. or the high beams (if u push the turn signal handle forward).. I am assuming maybe fuses are the issue, and was wondering if their is an interior fuse box, or is all this in the fort Knox fuse box that's under the hood? I purchased it during the day, so i didnt even pay attention to the interior console lights.. or high beams. truck only had 14k miles on it, so I would've never thought this would be an issue. any help would be greatly appropriated..

First check the rheostat. It's super common that it gets pushed all the way down when someone is detailing the dash.

And in answer, yes, there is an interior fuse box. You need to remove the bolster to access it. Use the search box. I know there's an image of it somewhere that IDs all the fuses. Then you can match what you're seeing with the numbers in the owner's manual.

Thanks guys, evidently when they were detailing the truck, there is a button between the 2 front seat dome lights, and i guess that was switched to off.. evidently that turns off the "unnecessary" dash / console lights.. didn't know that was a thing or why it would be. but its all good now... walked away like an idiot from the dealer lol
