Okay! First real post here!

Bought my 2000 Hatchback Tiburon yesterday Which I am terribly excited about. Whilst driving home from work tonight though, I was pulled over for a missing taillight. And of course when I try to leave my house to see a friend i find that not only is the taillight out, but the front corner light on the driver side and the dash lights are out also. Oh, and the right dome interior light is also out. I'm loving the Tiburon, but I really want to get this fixed as fast as possible. Please tell me it's nothing serious sad.gif cool.gif

 

Did you check the fuses?

 

I'll have to check those in the morning. Considering the fact I have no interior lights to turn on. Looks like it's more than one fuse though, after I look at the fuse diagram...

 

It's definitely a fuse. I did the same thing, and had the exact same question.

 

Just one more question, how much would about two or three fuses cost me at any chain garage (I.E. Vip, Sanel, Advance Auto, etc.)

 

Shouldn't be much.

 

Less than the amount of change you find hidden through out your car.

 

the ones you need are just spade fuses, cheap, maybe 5 bux tops depending if you have to buy diferent amperages.

 

So looking at the fuse diagram I figure I'll need to replace...

1- 10A - Instrument cluster
6 - 15A - Room lamp, Clock, Door lamps, Luggage room lamp
10 - 10A - Instrument cluster
13 - 15A - Cigarette lighter, Power door mirrors, Instrument cluster*
16 - 10A - Cruise, Head lamps, Fog lamps power window, Blower controls, DRL*
F (Green) _-_ 40A _-_ Head lamps, Tail lamps
LEFT LAMP (LH) _-_ 10A _-_ Left tail lamps
FRONT FOG LAMP _-_ 15A _-_ Front fog lamps*

*Forgot to mention my lack of power mirrors and fog lights...

So this seems like quite a bit to replace in the fusebox alone, though my best guess is that I'm completely wrong about this list. I'm so new to cars it's actually kind of funny. So I really don't know what the heck I'm doing

 

You won't have to replace all of them. All the headlights/taillights have two fuses really; one which powers the bulb, and one which powers the control circuit and relay. Some of the control circuits share the same fuses. This is probably your issue.

Fuses are cheap anyway. You can probably pick up an assorted pack with a fuse tester for ~20 bucks.
