re:Footwell Lights Not Working

Anyone know if there's a fuse for the lights under the dash over the foot-wells? Both of them are not working. Looked in fuse box but couldn't locate a designated fuse? I have LED lights throughout vehicle plus my brushed aluminum LED door sill lights aren't working either? Just noticed this today

911-targa4s is infamous around these parts
The footwell lights are linked to the overhead lights. Make sure the switch on the overhead console by the mirror is turned on.

Not sure about the fuse. Good luck.

check your switch in the overhead console. Should be in the middle position for on. If it doesn't work, could be a blown bulb. I couldn't find any fuse in the fuse sheet either.

Overhead switches are fine haven't been touched. Lights above work, just like I said not the footwell lights or the LED door sill lights and there is nothing in the chart on the fuses that mentions anything on a fuse for any of those interior lights.?

Just wanted to thank you for your advice! You were right! Somehow I guess had hit it while fumbling for the home-link garage opener. After pulling my hair out rechecking all of the fuses for being blown and my wiring to my led door sills, I was dumbfounded! I push the rocker switch overhead and there were the lights on the sills & the footwells! Thanks again! p.s. I'm still shocked there is no fuse for any of the interior lighting!?

Yep, if you switch the switch to "lights OFF" setting, the car obeys your request. Having such additional lights not found in all cars has us forget its part fo the interior lighting controlled via that circuit.
