But whatever, it all worked. About an hour or so after I replaced the fuse, I ran a quick errand. Everything was still working properly. However, when I got back in the car to return home, everything had gone back to the way it was; clock, stereo, dome lights, brights... nothing worked.
Is this just due to a bad fuse or is this due to a larger issue, ie, a short somewhere in the wiring?
Thanks.

Have you recently installed any new equipment (lighting or audio equipment)? If so, I would start looking there. I would replace the fuse again, just in case it was defective. If it goes again, then you probably have a problem somewhere in the wiring circuit. You will have to get a copy of the wiring schematics and check everything on that fuse circuit. Since you mentioned the high beams, I would check the wiring to them first, since that looks to be the only circuit outside of the cab and more prone to moisture and corrosion.
