A few months ago I was having issues with my car starting. Some mornings it would start up fine, the next it is completely dead to where my key fob wouldn't even unlock the car. At this point it took 10 minutes to charge up enough to start. The problem was so random, it went from not starting once a month, to once a week, and then quickly progressed to every time I tried to start it.

I took my car to a fix it shop, it took them a week to find it it was a parasitic draw to the radio that was draining my battery at night. They pulled the fuse to the radio and said it was OK to drive until the part comes in. That night I was driving it home and the car spazzed out. First all the the cruise control went out, then the power steering, then all the lights, then the car completely stalled and I had to push my car home on Christmas Eve. I got it towed back to the fix it shop and they replaced the part.

Although it did put the non starting issue to a halt, one problem continued. About 5-10 minutes into my driving, the break and/or gas pedal would start pulsating and then shortly after both my ABS and traction control light would turn on. This was an issue I had since day one out of the dealership, I didn't pay no mind to it as before it wasn't causing an issue. I pulled the ABS fuse, it has ceased that problem.

So I've been driving it problem free (besides the fact that I can never put my ABS fuse back in so my brake light is always on) for about 7 months now knock on wood but then today my radio stopped working mid drive. The display is still on, still switches CD's and does everything as usual, but there's no sound. It's not the speakers as they wouldn't all go out at once suddenly like that. I am terrified that it is the wiring issue coming back again, and I really don't have another grand to throw at my car to play the testing game again.

Please tell me you may know the problem! Thank you!
