Radio, seats, & cigarette lighter not working
#11
Learn to sing good country songs to yourself and after a while you won't even miss the radio. Hell I make up my own songs as I drive, similar to Jimmy Buffet and Willie Nelson type ballards.
At the price of these beasts, you would expect a well laid out terminal board and wiring conduit like an aircraft or something, but it ain't so. Look at my photo albums, I think there are some good pics with my carpets removed. I really don't plan on reinstalling them either.
There are ground post under the carpet and center console area, where the seats and other grounds terminated to little threaded studs.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this already, or if it helps at all, but I do remember some bit in the owner's manual about the radio doing that beep behavior if any buttons are pushed with the key not in position I, or something like that. Kind of sounds like wherever the power thats gets routed to those accessories(seats, lighter, radio) when the key is turned isn't making it. Maybe that could help you track it down on the wiring diagrams. There's probably a common splice or ground, as was mentioned earlier.

Well I was able to look at the truck a little bit today. I tried to follow the wires from the rear of the radio back into the dash but could not figure out where they go. The top connector on the radio does not get any power at all. I can't figure out in the rave manual if any of the wires are supposed to get power.
I also checked the fuses. The fuses for the radio, cig lighter, do not get 12 volts at all.
I hate electrical problems and driving without a radio is really getting to me.

if you are not getting 12 volts at the under dash fuse then you may have either a connector unplugged or an under dash fuse blown/missing

Given the combination of things without power (radio, rear mirror, power seats, lighter) I'm trying to figure out where the relays are to check them.
