    So I was replacing my interior light the other day and the truck was on probably not the best idea I know. Anyhow it sparked for a second then all the lights and clock went out. The clock would work on and off for a few days but now nothing . The fuses are all fine any thoughts?

    Did you read the fuse with a meter or just look at it.

    Hint: you cannot tell visually if a fuse is compromised.

    Something similar happened to me.. clock and everything went out, but replacing the fuse under the hood fixed it.

    The only thing in common between the clock and the dome light is the 7.5 amp dome fuse. What isn't working the dome light, the clock or both?

    ^----- That's the question I should have asked!

    Old Guy's rule ! You can tell a young-un the answer but you can't make him listen !!! (What?)
