Some Things Work, Some Don't.

Ok, my power hatch release , radio, power door locks, and dome light do not work, but power windows, all gauges, all lights, turn signals work fine. All the fuses are good.
Would there be a fusible link gone or something? Help me out, please!

I forgot to add that this problem was present when I bought the car, which is an '85 Z28, LG4. All computer stuff has been removed by the previous owner.

I am having the same problem with my 92 camaro. no horn, interior lights, power doorlocks, or trunk release. the fuse that controls all of these is the accessory fuse. it's supposed to be a 20 amp fuse. but mine has a 25 amp circuit breaker that trips all the time now. oh yea the radio gets staticky too. some please help us out.

I found out my aftermarket alarm is tapped into the same fuse: accessory. The alarm must have a short somewhere's, so i shut if off. The problem stopped, for now.

I'm having the EXACT same problem. Horn is gone, interior lights are gone, radio is gone.. and i have non-power windows so no probs there. Keep blowing ACC fuse. What was that screw in the cig. lighter doing to cause a short? Also, how doi go about finding the problem.. this could take a while i'm assuming.
