^^ lol Haunted? Lol maybe you should call ghost busters or scooby do about that j/k

go have the car checked out.

dome light fuse.. that's something i can't really tell you without diagnostically examining the car myself.. same thing with the radio.
window problem. sounds like something is jammed if it decides to re-open after you close them. the auto feature is probably power issue.

also, check the fuse for the cigarette lighter. your phone charger may have killed it. assuming it's not working.

haunted car?
 
Did everything start acting up at once? or did one problem occur, then the rest one by one? It May be a bunch of unrelated things, or may be the body control mondule. Im an ex toyta/scion tech, if memory serves right, the dome light fuse and radio were on the same circuit. That information wont be in the fuse box though. There were two fuses that power the radio. One specifically for the radio, one shared by the dome light. Get a wiring Diagram for the radio and double check that info, go from there.

the other fuse that powered the radio was the ACC fuse
the fuse that goes to the cig lighter is the CIG fuse.

however, if the "cigarette lighter" he plugged into was the "power outlet" (the outlet that's inside the armrest... then that'd be the ACC fuse.. along with the ACC SOCKET fuse.

it was those two that were related.. the power outlet and radio..
not the dome light and radio.

the dome light fuse (DOME) only powers the dome lighting, and various other interior lighting.. it is not related nor connected to the radio.

information that can be easily found inside your owner's manual, btw.

i really dont wanna take it scion, but i have to. before i do that im going to check the cigarette light and the fuse.
The body control mondule where is that?

SquallLHeart 10-20-2010 04:53 PM

.. what's a body control mondule?
module?

still confused.. i assume he meant the integration relay which is a very large part of the electrical system. located behind the plastic panel to the left of the steering wheel and under/behind the switch panel

brave_lil_toaster2008 10-23-2010 02:15 AM

the interior fuse panel is the body control module, it is one complete unit. it includes the integration relay. I had to change one after a lightening strike.

SquallLHeart 10-23-2010 06:34 PM

ahh.. the Instrument Panel Junction Box..

never really heard it called a "body control module" before.. makes it sound like it controls the body of something. lol. :silly:
