Default Interior Lights and Clock Not Working

Couple of days ago i noticed that my clock kept reseting, my door chime stopped dinging, and my interior lights (map lights, dome lights, door lights, glove box light, trunk light, and foot well lights) were flickering. I just shrugged it off and thought it was due to me working in the garage with the radio on draining the battery.

Then yesterday none of the lights and my clock sopped working. Ive checked all the fuses under the hood and at the kick panel and only found one blown fuse but it was for my panel lights not my hazard light lights up now never knew that it had a light before.

So if i was wondering if anyone has ever had the same problem and successfully repaired the problem.

i have the same problem, and i think it is because of the wires under the fender, i noticed it as well and checked everything and all the fuses were good, i was curious and check under the fender where the wire goes and say that 3 wires were cut do to corossion. I havent fixed it yet but i think it is this since everything else is still good.
