I recently purchased my 4x4 97 4runner with 99,xxx miles. It drives great and i am very happy with the purchase.

About a week after i purchased it, the radio, power locks, and dome light all went out. I took it to the dealer and they said it was just a blown fuse, as i suspected. That was roughly 3 weeks ago.

As of yesterday my radio, power locks, dome light, and now even my clock is out. I went and replaced the 30A power fuse thinking it would fix the problem but it didnt.

What i find really strage is that the clock works but only when i turn my hedlights on, and even then it is very very dim. The clock is reset everytime i turn the car off.

Has this ever happened to anyone and if so how can i go about fixing it?
Thank you!!!

 

dome lights can cause lots of problems ck there first I mean unscrew it from the roof and really look it over sometime even a blown bulb will short out inside itself but likely somebody left the dome light on overnight and melted it they aren't meant to be on that long as far as your clock it has two circuits one for the light/readout and one for the memory you probably have another fuse burnt out that is for the other things and the clock so ck them all good luck buddy
