97 Acura 3.5 RL-dome lights, bose stereo won't turn on

Have a 97 Acura 3.5 RL and think I blew a fuse but after checking, no fuses appeared to have blown. I plugged in a new cell charger in the lighter my car went dead. It turned back on right away but the dome lights, cigerette lighter and Bose radio will not work. What do I need to do to fix this?

Check the "interior lights" fuse. somehow it is related to the radio and if its blown out the radio wont work either. check every fuse in the fuse box.

Radio fuse keeps blowing in my 97 acura rl

The only thing you can do is to trace the circuits that are powered by that fuse. Nobody can do that online. I would recommend getting a wiring diagram if you are going to try to figure it out yourself. You will need a multimeter that can read amperage also.

Radio and navi won't turn on. Tried looking for blown fuse but unable to locate one. Help.

It helps to state what radio you have.....So did you find the fuse and its good?and getting power or just tried to find it? Try fuse 11 and 13 for the Nav. Fuse 8 and 9 inside and fuse 4 under hood for BOSE SYSTEM. Fuse 8, 9 under dash and 48 under hood for non BOSE

1997 Acura RL cigarette lighter Accessory outlet not working

I had the same problem, turns out tere was a fuse in the fuse panel beside the brake pedal that was blown out, however the fuse wasn't for the lighter it was for the headlights or something but the headlights we're still working.... CHECK ALL of the fuses, not just the lighter

1998 acura rl headlights dim

I would think ur low beams are burnt (the bulbs) because that dim light u see should be the daytime running lights, which are usually less bright that the lights turned on.
Verify ur fuses as well for the low beams.
Check on that for now and get back to me if u have questions.
