2002 D2. 97K
Dead battery on Thursday. Jumped it, all good Except....
1-Remote locking doesn't work
2-the 10 amp fuse in the back of the radio is blown and keeps blowing as soon as I put a new fuse in (went through 3)
3-the numbers on the LCD clock are gone but the light works (when I turn on the headlights)
4-Driver-side door Door window doesn't work -I tried using a different switch and nothing. I don't know if that is related to the first 3 but something's up.

I'm going to switch to an Odyssey 1500 but I don't thing that's the fix. My stock battery was old anyway. I checked fuses 3, 20 and a few others with no noticeable burned fuses. I have the Grom Iphone adapter in the back of the radio. 3 weeks ago, it lost the ability to charge the phone. Lost ground?
That's all I got.
Thanks

1 and 4 related by BCU and fuse F13 under hood and F29 and F34 under dash.

3 is fed by F20 for clock and F16 for light, both under dash, both use same ground from clock.

That is a hard reply to follow up on.
As for the battery, save your money and buy the new Sears Platinum Marine battery, less money, made by Odyssey and a better warranty.
Let us know how your electrical issue work out.

Thanks for the replies. Buzz, I'll start with focus on those relays and fuses. Nice heads up on the Sears battery Mike.

The RAVE for the D2 has very good wiring diagrams that are in color, and color pictures of the location of most connectors. Just like an old gas station road map, this dot connected to that one, etc.

I replaced all the fuses mentioned by buzz despite all of then "looking" intact.
And......
It worked!
This isn't the first time with F20. I've replaced that one a few times.
Thanks guys.
Next project build a tailgate drawer system.

You might get some ideas for the drawer system from some commercial systems. At my office we have vehicles with those drawers, for survey and specialty tools, and law enforement weapons storage (called a "vault"). Some are formidable units, heavy, hard to break into, pricey.
