Default Overhead console broken after car wash
Just ran through the car wash and my over head console quit working (exterior temp, mpg, compass etc...) the dome lights still work though. I assume it's a short from the water somehow. Where is the exact fuse or the console? I don't have a manual and don't really feel like looking at fuses 1 by 1.

It might not have been the car wash. As these things get older, they do that. Someday it might never come back on.
