Come on, somebody has to know what the solution is.... is there ANOTHER fuse panel, besides the one by the clutch pedal or the one near the battery that only has like 10 fuses in it?

Perhaps I'll have to chuck the factory bulbs back in and bring it to Nissan?

I disconnected each of the LED lights and still my tail lights don't come on unless I press on the brake.
I blew a fuse trying to put an LED bulb in the rear foglight. Not sure what the issue was so i just put a reg bulb back in.. didn't feel like messing with it..

Now, yes there are actually 2 fuse panels in the engine bay.. The one you are looking for is near the battery, kinda mounted on the fender wall. Pull of the battery compartment cover (the whole thing, undo the clips) and you should see it.. Its about 5 inches wide and like a foot long. Mounted vertically. I think there might be a screw or something holding it in place.. You should be able to unbolt it and there are probably like 40 fuses in there. There is a big wire bundle that is attached to one end, but there should be enough slack to pull it up and out of the hole that its in.

Good luck.

Yeah, this hidden fuse box was the location of the tail light fuse I had to swap after popping one during my fog light install. It's kind of a bitch to get to, but it does have a lot of fuses in it.

You wouldn't happen to remember what size fuse it is would you?

Alright I got it. I put the stock bulbs back in the rear plate area and called it a day.
