Description of the problem	While braking going into a right-hand-corner the lights on the dashboard came on and the engine stalled. The vehicle came to an immediate complete stop on the road. Luckily there was no car following me as otherwise there would have been a dangerous rear-end collision. Could not restart the vehicle. It was taken by truck to the jeep garage. A fuse connected to more than 30 applications had blown. When replaced the car functioned. Garage spent 2 days searching but could not diagnose the cause of the problem with the fuse .
