Post by Steeb »

Radio back up, clock, door locks are all on the 15 amp "Room" fuse. So is the key reminder switch and hatch light. Replace that fuse and you should be ok.

DAAAAAAM! AM I THE NOOB! :lol: i only checked the radio fuse and the lock fuse, i didnt even think of looking at the room fuse.

dum a-- me didnt think of looking at the room fuse.

why does the locks and radio run off the room fuse if there is another fuse for the radio and another one for the locks?

The radio has 2 supplies - one to make it work and the other for "memory".
