Default Clock Turns off when Door Opens

Hello all, I have been trying to figure this out on my own but so far no dice. My issue is that every time I open a door, the dome light comes on, and the clock will turn off. This happens whether the car is turned On or on Acc.

Once the door is closed, the dome light turns off, and the clock turns back on, reset to 1:00. I figure there must be a short somewhere in the line, but have had a heck of a time finding out where it could be.

My radio also went out at the same time, and figure that it must all be on the same circuit. I have gone to my local library and pulled the best wiring diagram I could find there for my car, however I don't see any where the issue might be. If anyone has any suggestions that would be fantastic. The car runs great and this problem only affects my clock and radio at this time.

*edit*

Sorry, forgot to add my car information.

2005 Chevy Aveo LS 5 door with 5 speed manual transmition.
