Default XB electronics gone!

I have had my XB for about 2 weeks and love it but tonight I had my first problem. My family hopped into the XB to go to dinner but most of the electronics inside the car didn't work. No AC, speedometer cluster, odometer, window controls or turn signals. Luckily we live within 2 miles of our Scion dealer, we stopped by and they looked at it and said that a fuse had blown. We were back on our way within 15 minutes. However about 15 minutes later everything went away again. Then the VCS, Trac Off, and Check Engine lights came on. The fuse seems to pop after a window has been lowered and raised. The only thing that I could think of was that we had the "Euro" style tail lights installed (at the dealer) after we had the XB for about a week. Maybe something got screwed up in the wiring. Has anyone heard of anything like this before?

Thanks,

Jason

Definately a short somewhere. Take it back to the dealer and have them trace it. Make sure they know that they installed the tails and not you.
