    Default Every electical (except essentials) just died.

    Tonight I got into my car and noticed the radio didn't have any power, as well as the OBC, the lights worked, but nothing came up on the LCD. I pulled over and when I turned off the ignition, the dome lights didn't come on, popped the hood and checked all the fuses, but all was well. So then once I parked my car and went to lock it.... nothing. no power at all.

    My dashboard lights work just fine, as well as the HVAC. Oh and my sunroof is stuck open
    Any ideas what could be wrong?

    That's odd, might be a grounding issue...

    the fusible link is usually close to the battery it is a large fuse that burns out to protect you system it is in a small black box (2x4in I think)by the battery.
