Hey guys my 94 just developed a problem and I hope to have it fixed before the snow hits me! It keeps blowing fuse 19 and I lose my dash lights. I recently installed a new radio but it has been 2 weeks without a problem. And ideas why this just started happening?

Pull your radio out and check the illumination wire. Probably wasn't capped off and is bouncing around and will randomly ground out. That wire controls all of your dash lights. I can almost guarantee you that's what the problem is.

By the way, if the radio was installed correctly with a factory wiring harness adapter, the illumination wire will be orange or orange/white. Check them both.
