Default Nike Light issue

Guys, for some reason both Nike lights on our 2014 RX went out. When I checked the rear lights were not working either. I changed the fuse under the dash, rear lights came back on. Changed the fuse for the day time running lights under the and only one Nike light comes on. Is there a side specific fuse? I could not find that in a book. Or is there a plug for that alone behind the headlight?

Thanks in advance.

The Nike lights are led’s and part of the housing. There should be a separate connection on the light for that.

I havnt taken mine mine apart yet but I’m getting condensation in the drivers side and have to fix it so when I do ( within the next few days) I can tell you where the connector is.

I would check power going to it, there is a lot of wiring in these beasts but it seems like they all are setup with some common sense from what I can tell.

Oh, OK. I thought the marketing people at Lexus started some branding campaign like the ones they used to do with a mediocre leather goods company, Coach, back in the early 2000's.......

If they both went at the same time as part of other lights going out, look for an electrical issue. Simple as a fuse, complicated as a bad ground or wiring issues. Any other events leading up to it? Heavy rain, different parking spot etc etc.
