Electrical problem 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic 45000 miles

I just bought this car with 45000 mi. There are several electrical issues that I can't help but think are related. The power lock switches don't work (driver or passenger side), stereo doesn't work, interior lighting doesn't work, small bulb under hood doesn't work, and elec. mirror adjustment doesn't work. All fuses check out fine. I took the mirror adjustment switches off to find burnt connections and wires, however all other switches and wiring look fine. Can you help me?

Hey BOOSH,

I think you missed a fuse as you can tell by this wiring diagram it is the IOD 15 amp fuse int he under hood fuse panel. Use a test light to see if it has power.

Best, Ken

Hi:
Yes it sounds like a ground problem. If you go to the local plymouth dealer, they should be able to show you a schematic of the grounds for those items.
