Electrical help

I drove my 2000 f250 to Chicago on sunday and as soon as i got into the city my radio stopped working and my windows wont roll down. It seems like everything else is working fine. I have been looking online for a while to see what the problem is but all i can find is people talking about having the same problem. Does anyone know what the problem is and how to fix it? Could it possibly be a fuse?

This sounds like a classic GEM issue. I've heard of people pulling the GEM and cleaning the board off (alcohol and a toothbrush), with good results. I'd be one to try that if it turns out the GEM seems to be the cause.

This might be a stupid question but what is the GEM?
