I unplugged and replugged the door lock vacuum pump this weekend and now my radio and clock are dead?? When I first plugged the vacuum pump in, it started but shut off after about 30 seconds. I did this again, but this time it did not start.

Checked fuses, all seemed OK, but one, replaced it with spare.

Any advice?

Replace the fuse that controls that circuit.
Old fuses can look good, but still not pass the current.

Jim,
Any idea which fuse, or where I can find a fuse layout. The fuse box has a list by number, but I can't read the numbers on my fuse box.

Thanks

On mine the layout is on the underside of fuse box top, however, it's paper, here goes... #11 blue 25A, odd # fuses rear most, only one other 25A fuse odd #, concerns power front seat cushion. Hopes this helps.

It was the #11 fuse. Finally got a big light and my reading glasses. Replaced with spare, and now everything works again.

Next time I will know what to look for.

Thanks for the advise again.
