I just bought my 2002 Accent used.Everything works great on the car accept the radio, dome light and clock do not work. I have replaced the radio with a brand new one as well as the dome light bulb. Still none of them work. I have checked all of the fuses both inside the car and in the engine compartment and they appear to be good. What am i missing?

and you are correct ,most fuses have many loads. some are 20 or more. (now windows ,usually)

and DC amp clamp meter 100x more easy.

There is one fuse that does connect the 2 but also many other things like the clock and I believe the instrument cluster. In any case it is located in the fuse panel under the hood of the vehicle behind the vattery. Below is a diagram of the fuse layour and I marked the fuse you need to check. Hope this helps.
If the radio works, but the display doesn't the bulb is burned out, I think removing the radio is necessary to replace it. I would see it as an excellent opportunity to upgrade sound systems and go with an aftermarket unit that will interface with your Ipod.
On most vehicle the fuse for the clock will be the same as the interior dome light. As for the radio should be a 10 amp fuse (red). Usually found on the interior fuse panel for both.
