Well...so...you changed the fuse for the radio...and then it worked. Maybe if you change the fuses for the other things, they will work.


I underlined what I thought would be common sense.

well fuses blow because the get to hot.. becuz there is too much amperage flowing throught them and they melt... whihc u probly no.. now is it possible u got a alternator thats overchargen ur system slightly.. and the heat could have been the toppeling bird

yea i no one but whether or not its worth it is another thing...

u can pull the door panel off and grab a positive wire from the fuses box and supply the window switch directly with power... it should work

but fixing the problem might be quicker.. get a multimeter its a must for electrical issues

i dont tmhink its nesseary.. and it will cost a hell of a lot of money for the entire car when u only problem is accesory systems.. pick up a manual for ur car.. do u no how to follow eletrical schematics??
.. i mean if u got the money u can get someone to do it for u.. thats done it before.. but ur just goning to be depending on other ppl to fix problems.. tyhat if u spent sum time to learn u can fix them.. electrical is all logic.. but.. on the other side its a 4th gen car right?? so the systems are all connected to damn computers that screw with ur life.... whihc just brought up another idea.. ask ur cars computer.. it might tell u the problem.. with the ignitoin switch.. i dont remmeber how but i look for u.. sumthing about turn the switch on then off then on then the check engine light morse codes the diagnosis
