Hey guys, I need a little help. So like my center sole dash thingy sometimes shuts off(cd play dies, ac/heater dies, and the cig outlet dies) while I'm driving. It would shut down for like 15 mins or so and then it will turn back on again. It's strange....so I'm not too sure whats wrong. Maybe a bad fuse?? Which one would it be though if so? Do you guys have any clues or idea to help me? Thanks!^_^

The on and off sounds like a loose connection.
the entire section there works off of one fuse, those are cheap so just replace it as a first step.
Connections behind there include the following:
Cigarette lighter 1 plug
AC unit. 1 plug?
Radio. I think 2 plugs
Hazards. 1 plug
clock. 1 plug
Just pop off the console and make sure its all connected securely.
I will double check all the plugs tomorrow again. I'm pretty sure that its all good though

the ground in that area may be loose/corroded.
if you pull the carpet up from tunder the center console on the drivers side, it sould be on the "transmission tunnel" there

Does it go on/off when the car jostles or just at random, when the car could be parked?

So I look at my fuses and it's all good. Switch some of my relay fuse too and it's still the same. So far it only happens when I drive at random times. Tomorrow I will check the grounding for that area then.

soo, it wasnt a bad ground. im not sure what it is anymore. i checked all the grounding and its good. i checked and swap the fuses that i thought would be bad and its still not the problem. but for 4 days straight now it just randomly stopped turning off the center sole...strange...
