Its an old jeep. I was working on putting a new radio in when i had to drive back to my house to get something i had forgotten. On the way the gauges dropped, the radio shut off and i do not know what happened. all i know is that the car still runs and everything from the lights to the check engine light works. yet neither the radio nor the gauges will turn on or move respectfully. i was hoping someone might know. if its a busted fuse or wire possible

I would start with the fuses. Something may have shorted something under the dash.
