    you have a short in the circuit somewhere. look for a chafed wire. i'd start with the radio harness and plug.

    this circuit is also tied in with the overhead/dome lights,correct? are there courtesy lights in the door panel? thinking maybe the wiring passing from cab to door has finally chafed thru.

    since you have not been in the dash just prior to this happening,i would look for any wiring on this circuit that passes thru a door grommet or related. anywhere the wiring loom moves,.
     
    Aktrans Thanks this.
