Hey Guys, Ive had a search but it didnt come up with my exact answers. I went today and bought a cassette adapter for my Sony DC5, so i can plug it in and run through the tape player. I put the tape and nothing happens at all, no movement, no sound , nothing. Could there be a fuse gone? or...

I noticed when I got home that there wasn't much light coming from the front - whatever setting I put the lights to, only sidelights and fog lights come on. I don't know if I had full beam earlier (i flashed a thanks and I saw that) ... Also, twice in the last week the power steering...
