They all just shut off, I can't see the ambient temp, or the time. The radio doesn't turn on now. Everything else works. This just happened too, what can I do to fix it? It is a 98 XLS. Oh yeah, and the electrical outlet doesn't work either now.

Check the fuse labeled 'CIG/RADIO'

Ok, the cig/radio fuse I found its location. How do I check if it is blown or not? And if it is blown how do I fix it?

Pull that bastard out. When you look through it, you'll see a little piece of bent metal inside the plastic. If the metal is broken, the fuse is bad and needs to be replaced with one of the same color. Pull out an adjoining one too if you want and compare the two to see if they look different.
