Electrical problem
1983 Mercedes Benz 300d 4 cyl Automatic

The following stopped working all of a sudden;
power windows
guages
turn signals
I have opened the fuse box, they all seem to be in good shape.
What else would likely cause this? Thanks!

corrosion on the fuse contact points, the fuses may look good but they are not making contact, take each one of fuses and twist them back and forth to make contact, if it starts to work remove all of your fuses take a wire brush and clean the contacts.
