Odometer, Radio, Alarm..not working! Bad storm tonight here in Central Florida. Lightning like crazy was at the woman's apartment and from where her place is you can't really hear an alarm going off or anything like that. But I get in the car and start it up, Odometer and Trip meter do not show up, radio is not working-seems like it is not gettting any juice, alarm will not set nor does the key fob work anymore. I haven't looked at any fuses yet, don't smell any burning, could the lightning have something to do with this? I'm having a friend come over with his wiring diagram and all of his electronics tools when I get off work tommorow. I really could care less about the odometer haha, but the radio(head unit) and alarm (i live near some shady characters) are necessary! PleASSEEEE HELP! Any input is greatly appreciated also!

well dirtybird im having almost the exact same problem. except my keyless entry works but the parking lights dont blink when i lock/unlock it. odometer is out along with radio. i pulled my negative battery cable and it fixed it for about 10 minutes then i went to start the car again and it wasnt working.....however as soon as i came back and pulled my car in the driveway they magically came back on. then later it didnt work. i went out with my girlfriend and i came back and they work again, keep in mind the car hadnt moved in over 3 hours.wtf???? 
geuss ill try it again tomorow morning and see whats up.
