alright, first off my dome light (the one that comes on when the doors are open) well it works when it wants to. bulb is good cause it'll come on every now n then. whether it's turned on from the switch, or the doors are open, it won't work. secondly, i've got a sony headunit that's been in the car damn near since i got the car, and a month or so ago i started the car and it didn't come on. so i turned the car off and started it again, the radio came on. same thing happend to me yesterday and it took a couple starts to get it to come on, anyone ever have this stuff happen to them? or is casper the ghost living in my dash?
