05 mustang v6 electrical problem

So recently my car started tripping my accessory relay in the passenger floorboard causing my radio to turn on and off and when it's doing it my windows or interior lights don't work. I haven't recently added anything to cause the problem. I tried changing the relay and still no success. Please tell me someone knows what's wrong and how to fix

SJB. Probably water intrusion. Does the passenger side carpet ever get wet when it rains?

I live in the desert lol it never rains. But no it doesn't, it started on a road trip, no rain along way, first rain she's seen in about 6months was about 5 days ago, problem started about 3 weeks ago

Do you wash the car?

There ya go.

But even if you don't (highly unlikely you've *never* done it) the SJB is definitely the most likely cause of this. Water isn't required, sometimes they are broke. Have it looked at.

I got caught in the rain last week for the first time in years. My car freaked out. Where are you from? Anywhere near Vegas? Anyways I would still check your SJB. Check all the pins and connections. All that stuff runs through that thing and when folks start having strange electrical issues, 90% of the time it ends up being the SJB.

Okay, I'll have that looked at bit one thing I narrowed down, usually I can't get through three songs before it cuts everything off, today I didn't start car but just left radio going and key on worked fine for over an hour. But when I start driving like one song. Off.
