Loss of Power

Would anybody know why I would lose power to the power mirrors, rear hatch, and door locks other than the typical fuse....the fuse was the problem before but is good this time.

Thanks for the reply, but it ended up being the main battery wire going to the starter. It grounded out on the header and blue all the fusable links at the starter end of the harness. Amazingly enough the car would still start and run with the cable grounded out, so it kind of threw me for a loop. Thanks
