When you look at fuses, wherever that panel may be, you can't always tell if they're blown by how they look. Try finding a fuse labelled interior or something close and swapping it with an identical fuse.

What you could do is take a note of all the fuses in the panel, and replace them one by one with an indentical fuse, until the lights come on. You could also hit a Explorer forum and see if they have more direct advice. Good luck
