One day while driving I hit a bump and my radio went out, so I hit the dashboard and it starting working again, but now the radio does not work neither does the dashboard lights or my tail lights. The dealership changed the fuse and everything is now working but they don't know what caused the fuse to blow like that? I do have a automatic starter but that's been for 2 years already never a problem.

Hi there,

The fact that the problem started with a jolt and you could make contact again with a belt of the dash would indicate a loose connection somewhere, the only way to locate this is to access the looms and wiggle the connectors to see if one is causing the problem.
