My power mirrors, door locks and windows on driver/passenger side will not go up or down, not only that my car sat for two to three days when i noticed my battery went down to almost completely dead. i took the negative end off, and that is how it is now as we speak. I checked the fuses and none looked blown. I am lost because i am a novice when it comes to this type of problem.

The place to start looking is at the wiring harness between the driver's door hinges. Look for broken or frayed wires. If you find any, I will describe how I repair them.
