i just bought a 97 chrysler sebring. when i bought it the dashlights, radio, and rearview mirror lights didn't work. I had a couple fuses changed and a new stereo put in and it all started working. that same day while i was driving the dashlights and radio blew again....nothing else. Again that fuse was changed and it worked for a little while. It has blown a few more times since then and the ignition fuse is now blown so the car wont start. What could be causing this?

You have a short (open) circuit between the fuse box to the radio/dash and the ignition key.
