quick help with electronics/wiring please

The radio, dome light, and electric mirrors quit working this morning. Just as he was trying to trade it in, so we need some quick help! All the fuses are good, but those things all went out at once. Anybody have any ideas? thanks, -Evan

Do the cargo lamps still work ? Does the glove box lamp still work ? Does the underhood lamp work ? Do the visor/vanity lamps work ?

Are you sure fuse 12, in the fuse box inside the truck, is good ? Could you try replacing it, even though it looks good ?

I have checked all the fuses, even in the power distribution box. Checked all fuses with a continuity tester too. What is the iod fuse? Thanks for the quick replies, -Evan

Ignition off draw its in the fuse panel and has a plastic cover thing over it, I think you can still test it with a continuity tester or test light with the plastic cover on. when my mirrors, dome light, radio quit working I thought all the fuses were ok becouse I didn't test that one cuz of the cover.
