I recently replaced the cat converter in my 2000 Dodge 1500 Ram truck. When I got the vehicle back from the shop, the radio, the power mirrors, the dome lights, the cargo light, and the seatbelt solenoids did not work. Can't convince the shop they did it. All fuses are good. I suspect one or more fusible links are blown, but can't find them. Can anybody offer any clues or have another thought?

I've checked both sets of fuses (in cab and under hood). Haven't had time to see if there's actually power to the fuses, though. I have a circuit drawing, but its not a very good one. It shows the failed devices coming off different circuits -- that's what's confusing to me.
The vehicle runs fine, otherwise

While the shop might be dishonest, it could just be that your truck developed another problem at the same time they had it. If they were working on the exhaust system, it shouldn't have effected the electrical system whatsoever.
It probably is a fusible link, like you said. The trouble is finding the stupid things *lol*
