In electrical engineering, a safety device that protects electric circuits from the effects of excessive electric currents.

A fuse commonly consists of a current-conducting strip or wire of easily fusible metal; whenever the circuit is made to carry a current larger than that for which it is intended, the strip melts to interrupt it.

Where is the radio fuse on a 2005 Chrysler town and country minivan?

The radio fuse is in the fuse box on the driver's side in the engine bay, just behind the battery. On the fuse box lid you'll see a diagram showing the location of each fuse and its function. The radio fuse should be denominated "RDO" on the diagram and controls your radio and the front accessory power outlet (possibly other features, but I'm not sure). It is a 20A fuse and is yellow in color. You'll probably need some needle nose pliers to remove it.
