I need help, I have a 2000 379 Pete my fuse for dome light keeps blowing out and my am/fm radio doesn’t work, where should I look?

i'd look at the door switches and wiring to them, they could be cracked/chaffed for all the years of opening/closing.

is the radio AND dome light fuse the same one?

if so, can you switch out the radio to make sure it is not defective?

check the (power point ) or cigarette lighter as well, as sometimes, that is also the dome light fuse, maybe the cigarette lighter is bad.

check all devices plugged into any power point/cigarette lighter that you use for powering up your stuff, maybe THAT socket is bad.

Wiring behind the radio will sometimes find a metal bracket to chafe on. Causing it to short the rest.
