Parking lamps and tail lights wont work!!!!

The problem is with a 2000 3.2 TL. I replaced the dash light dimmer switch and now my dash lights, the parking lamps (running lights), and the tail lights wont work. The brake lights still work. I tried to find the fuse but couldnt find which one it was. Anyone who might have an idea what fuse this could be or with an answer to the problem please help.

I was Looking for a parking lamp fuse or running lamp fuse but i was unable to find either one. So i just started testing them with a test light and came across a fuse underneith the hood. This fuse was marked as SMALL LIGHT i replaced this fuse and all of my nonworking lights started working. So if you are currently having this problem replace this fuse even if it doesnt look blow this could solve the problem.

replaced that fuse with no luck...Can you recall if you did anything else?

I'll go to RadioShack tomorrow to purchase a fuse tester and test all fuses.

Thx...Ryan

The fuse is in the engine bay fuse box. The fuse is called "small lights" or something similar to that.
