So after plugging the old box back in, your driver's side headlight works again?

And were you using Auto or forcing them on (based on switch position)?

Hey, i know no one has posted to this thread for a few years. I just bought a 2k Maxima with 44k miles a few months back. I just got the same exact problem, (power locks, rear defroster, interior lights don't work). I checked all my fuses (left of steering wheel and under the hood), only found 1 blown 5A fuse, which I replaced. Still had the problem. Went to a junkyard and grabbed a SECU, plugged it in and still had the problem. Did anyone ever find another solution besides the replacing the SECU? I'm a college student and really don't want to pay a Nissan dealer or an autoshop to diagnose and fix.

Thanks!

The way I read it, replacing the SECU solved his problem. The only complication was that the first used SECU also had a problem.
