Default Dome light and dash clock

The two interior instruments are synchronously powering on and off, and a light beep sound is present as well.. Where should I look first? Can Somebody tell me if this is a fuse issue or something more severe

I think I remember them being tied to the stereo for some reason. I think they're controlled by a 10amp fuse in the fuse box under the hood. If you have a sunroof, it was tied to the same radio fuse I'm thinking of. Check any wiring in those areas that you may have messed with - something might be shorting out, a wire touching another wire or metal somewhere behind the dash.

Hmmm, let me think.

I got no power in my cruise control, dome light, and my dash clock.

Like majik said: check your fuses and relays first. Maybe your body control module has a loose wiring connector?

Fuses are good. Well last time I checked the the fuses, by looking at them, they were not burnt or anything but the little coils inside them were definently there and not burnt out or broke at all.



Well, the dash alarm makes a digital clicking signal like its low on battery(blinks on and off). It is synchronus with the top interior dome lights. Then they just do not operate.

Is this on a running car? If it's been sitting up, maybe the battery is low? Check the fuses with a multimeter, visual check can fool you (well, it's fooled me before but I'm projecting onto "you")

If the lights are flashing in time with the door chime, you have your wires crossed somewhere. Maybe due to heat or collision damage or some "clever" re-wiring in the past.
