Quick answer
Your 2021 Nissan Rogue has three primary fuse box locations:
- Under-hood fuse box: Located in the engine bay, near the battery.
- Passenger compartment fuse box: Found behind a trim panel on the passenger side of the dashboard, near the kick panel.
- Trunk/cargo area fuse box: Situated in the rear of the vehicle, accessible from the cargo area.
Always consult the fuse box lid or your owner's manual for the exact fuse layout in your specific trim level, as configurations can vary.
Under-Hood Fuse Box
The main fuse box in the engine bay houses fuses for high-amperage components like the starter, cooling fans, and ABS.

|---|---|---|---|
| F1 | 30A | Pink | ABS Control Unit |
| F2 | 40A | Green | Blower Motor |

| R3 | - | Black | A/C Clutch Relay |
Passenger Compartment Fuse Box
This fuse box, located behind the passenger-side kick panel, protects most of the interior circuits.
| Fuse # | Amp | Color | Circuit / Component Protected |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 10A | Red | Airbag System |
| 2 | 15A | Blue | Infotainment System / Radio |
| 3 | 10A | Red | Turn Signals & Hazard Lights |
| 4 | 7.5A | Brown | Interior Dome & Map Lights |
| 5 | 15A | Blue | 12V Power Outlet / Cigar Lighter |
| 6 | 10A | Red | Brake Switch & Lamps |
| 7 | 10A | Red | Tail Lights & Parking Lights |
| 8 | 15A | Blue | Wiper & Washer Switch |
| 9 | 5A | Tan | Instrument Cluster |
| 10 | 10A | Red | Power Door Locks |
Trunk/Cargo Area Fuse Box
In some trims, a third fuse box is located in the cargo area to manage rear-body electrical components.
| Fuse # | Amp | Color | Circuit / Component Protected |
|---|---|---|---|
| T1 | 20A | Yellow | Trailer Tow Connector (if equipped) |
| T2 | 15A | Blue | Rear Power Outlet |
| T3 | 10A | Red | Rear Wiper Motor |
| T4 | 7.5A | Brown | Liftgate Control Module |
How to test a fuse
Testing a fuse is a simple process. You can either use a multimeter or do a visual inspection.
Visual Inspection:
- Turn the vehicle off.
- Locate and remove the suspect fuse. Most fuse boxes have a small plastic fuse puller tool to make this easier.
- Hold the fuse up to the light. Inside the plastic body, you will see a thin metal strip. If this strip is broken or melted, the fuse is blown and needs to be replaced.
Multimeter Test:
- Set your multimeter to the continuity setting (often indicated by a diode or sound wave symbol).
- Touch one probe to each of the two metal prongs on top of the fuse.
- If the multimeter beeps or shows a reading of zero (or very close to zero), the fuse is good. If it remains silent or shows an "OL" (open loop), the fuse is blown.
When replacing a fuse, always use a new one with the exact same amperage rating. Using a higher-rated fuse can lead to a fire hazard.
Common blown fuses on this vehicle
-
12V Power Outlet / Cigar Lighter (15A): This is one of the most common blown fuses, often caused by a faulty phone charger or other plugged-in device. If you find this fuse blown, inspect the outlet for any foreign objects and check the device you were using.
-
Infotainment / Radio (15A): If your radio or center screen goes dark, this fuse is the first thing to check. Aftermarket sound system installations are a common cause of this fuse blowing. If the fuse blows repeatedly, there may be a short in the radio wiring or a fault in the head unit itself.
-
Blower Motor (40A): If your cabin fan stops working on all speeds, the blower motor fuse is a likely culprit. If it blows, the blower motor itself might be failing and drawing too much current, or a piece of debris may have jammed the fan.

Before you pull a fuse on the 2021 Nissan Rogue
- Use the label printed on the panel cover or the owner's manual for your exact build. Layouts change with options, model year and build date, so a chart for another truck can be wrong.
- Replace a blown fuse only with the same amp rating. A larger fuse can let wiring overheat.
- A fuse that blows again right away means a short or failing component downstream. Find the cause before replacing it again.
- A good fuse doesn't prove the circuit works — relays, grounds and connectors fail too.
- Disconnect the battery before working near high-current fuses or cables.
