Default radio and dome light don't work
here's the deal- none of the lights on the stock radio work and it only plays fuzz, it won't change "stations". it worked fine yesterday, but when I turned the car on today, nothing came out but fuzz. I tryed replacing the fuze. But that didn't do anything. the dome light also doesn't even come on.

What might be the matter?

oh and I just realized - All the guage lights work. And it doesn't beep at me (i.e. not putting on seat belt, leaving lights on)

Now look for the reason the fuse was blown.

Use duct tape as a temporary fix. Try to get your hands on some electrical tape, 3M preferably or some wire crimp connectors.
