Windows and door locks and door chime would work sometimes for a while and now they stopped and won't work at all.

Hi,

The first thing I suggest is to check fuse 8 in the fuse box under the left side of the dash. Also, circuit breaker 1 in the same box.

These two are responsible for powering the windows and locks. When you check the fuse, it is important to also confirm there is power to and from it.

Here is a link you may find helpful:

Start with this and let me know what you find.

Take care,

Yes, fuses are good in that panel and under hood #1 says blower motor, correct? I also changed and checked this one. How do I test switch with voltage meter? I think that might be it but not sure.

Hi,

That is a good question. I'm looking through and finding the connector for the SJB and its showing circuit breaker 1 in that location. Ugh! They never make it easy. LOL

Take a look at the pic below and see if you can locate anything on your vehicle. Also, just to confirm, fuse 8 has power to and from it, correct?

Let me know.
