I was driving in town and the radio just cut off out of nowhere. I tried taking the face panel off and resetting it but that did not seem to work. Then upon getting out of my car I noticed my power locks are not working as well. If you push down or pull up on the driver side lock it is supposed to lock or unlock everything else. This seem to stop working at the same time as the radio. Upon further research on the internet, I started checking everything else. The overhead light is the only other thing that seems to not be working. Another note to add is that when I pull up or push down on the lock and hold it there, it makes the beeping noise heard when the keys are left in. Turning on the overhead light does this as well. Any advice would be appreciated.

Fuse 8 in the diagram is probably blown. According to ProDemand, it is located in front of the left front door pillar. It should be an 8 amp fuse. You should probably take a cursory look at the various lights and such that are on the circuit to see if there are any identifiable issues. Most likely, in my experience at least, the fuse just got old and finally blew. Let us know how it goes for you.
