Thinking there should be a fuse at the back of the instrument panel I took it out and pulled out the red fuseholder. The fuseholder looks just like a usual black bulbholder but it is red. It is located right behind the light-brightness/odometer-reset button at the instrument panel. When you turn and pull it out you will see that it holds a fuse that looks like a broken piece of the usual schematic board. What I did with it is using my fingers I reattached the two side leads and put it back.
All the lights at the center console and vents are working now and I am happy too
