I have a 95 240sx that I just finished installing a new head unit in today. After playing with the radio for a few minutes I noticed that I had drained the battery to much to crack the car so I tried to jump it off. After I jumped it I heard a clicking noise coming from the fuse panel and thats when the clock on my cluster went blank and the radio stopped working. I have checked all the fuse and they are all good. Everything else is working. Any help on this would be great. Thanks Jesse

Off the top of my head i would check the little white box by the fuse box, it has something to do with the clock. I'm sure someone can explain this a little better.

Check all your fuses by the drivers side kickpanel again, i had the same problem after i took my car to get the exhaust finished, i guess a tech liked the music loud on the "test drive" really loud I believe the fuse was brown in color.

You're a genius. I went back out and checked all the 7.5 amp (brown) fuses and sure enough I found a blown one. It was the Electronic Battery Fuse. Going to O'Rileys to get a new one tomorrow. Thanks Guys for the quick help.

hey a good idea would be next time you're in a junkyard just pocket a couple handful of those fuses, you'll never have a problem like this again

LMAO not a bad idea at all. I already do that with screws, nuts, and bolts.

Or... you could just pony up the $3.00 and buy a fuse kit that comes with different ones and keep it in the glove box?
