First off, I apoligize if I posted this in the worng section, but i didnt know anywhere else to post it. Ok the my problem is with the head unit. its the factory unit, and it doenst start at all, and neither does it show the time. Along with the stereo, neither does the light when you open the door work, and the lights on the sun blocker thing. I replaced the fuses for all of these accessories, but that didnt do anything, they still wont work. The ac works, the signals work, just the stereo and these lights dont work? what could be the problem?. I think they stoped working when i tried to replace the light bulb in the trunk. what happend was when i was tryin to twist it and pull it off, the bulb just broke off from the metal part, and the metal part was stuck inside. thanks a lot, I appreciate it, and have a good day.

That left over bulb is causing a problem, try removing that and re-check those fuses. Obviously some of the items that work are on a different fuse.

I did, and I put in a new bulb, and that one didnt light either. Also when i replaced the fuses, they werent defected; that piece of metal in the middle was still connected, and working, so i dont think it has to do anything with the fuses. but i replaced them anyway.

well make sure all of the old bulb is out, that the other not working light is a good bulb. You say it's not the fuses, but that sounds like the only thing it could be. check one more time the fuses   and make sure its the fuses for the interior probably not the one under the hood   well good luck
