2002 radio won't turn on... all fuses are good... HELP

Joined: Aug 05, 2008 Posts: 2

My wife reports that she turned on the headlights and there was a surge on the panels and the dash lights went out and the radio will not turn on. I checked the fuses in all 3 locations. All fuses were good. Its a strange problem, I have never seen anything like it. When you turn the headlights on, the lights behind the transmission locating on the dash dim considerably. I feel it may have something to with the alternator and battery? not sure. Does Anyone have a clue how to diagnose this problem???

Thanks so much
