Subject:Re: no dash lights and radio only works when engine is running

There are additional fuese, above the relays. There's where the fuse for the
instruments lights fuse is located. The interior lights and the clock share
the same fuse, #3. And I'm not completely sure, but I believe that's the
fuse for the radio too. If you have a factory radio, the backlight is
connected to the interior and cigarette lighter lights. I would start there.
