Alright, In my 89 240 I'm having some big electrical issues that I can't seem to figure out.

When I put my foot on the brake the dash lights and parking lights go on.
When I take the key out of the ignition the clock turns off and the seatbelts stop working.
My stereo doesn't turn on.

Yesterday when I was driving it magically fixed itself for about a half hour. When I turned on the stereo, after half a song it all went to hell again and stopped working.

I was thinking it could be that I'm overloading the ignition wire circuit for my stereo because I had the stereo, e-cutout, and 3 gauges hooked up to it with an upgraded fuse, but when I unhooked everything but the stereo, the problem remained.

I have no idea what to check. HELP!!!
