The dash lights along wth the radio that are on a 5 amp fuse blows out at times. Tried hitting dash, turning lights on / off cannot duplicate problem and then they will just go off by themselfs. Manual shows that ths circuit is for all dash displays, door lights, ash tray, raer defroster, and heatr illumination. Any past finddings that you may have encountered?

Thank you in advance. Also the car has never been in the winter use so I would not think it would be corrosion. Dave C Lancaster, NY

I don't think a 5 amp fuse is right. In most models I lookd up ther is a 15 amp fuse used for the dash lights. Try a 10 amp fuse and see if it does it still. The radi fuse is a 20 amp fuse.
