Fan, windows, wipers stop working

Four cylinder four wheel drive automatic 120,000 miles

A few months ago my wipers, A/C fan, and windows would all stop working at once. However, I could barely turn the ignition key back towards me and they would come back on. Now that little trick is not working and I cannot use my car at all. Any suggestions? The kia dealership said "it could be anything" and they will charge me $75.00 an hour to diagnose it. Thanks!

I would start with checking ignition switch. Find an independent shop ask friends for a place.
Good luck

What could cause the windshield wipers, power windows, and heater blower to stop working at once?

Need some more information to help. Make model year and work done recently and problems or modifications just prior to this.
