No Power Mirriors, Door Locks, horn or inirior lights.

I Just bought a 1992 Z28 Heritage Edition, The Trunk pop, Power Mirriors, Power door locks, Cig. Lighter, horn or dome lights dont work. My Passenger side window works Driver does not(Motor is bad) and all my gauges work fine. My old 1987 Formula had this same issue. Never could figure it out. I think it is common any ideas thanks or any one know what it is that would be a TON of help!

When this happened on my '84 T/A, it was just one fuse I had to replace and everything came back to life!

So I'd start at the fuse block. I can't remember what it was called, but check each one.

Ive checked all fuses 5 times! Not the fuse. Is there a common wire that comes loose under the dash some where. Not a big deal it would be nice to have all my power stuff back.

Re: No Power Mirriors, Door Locks, horn or inirior lights.

That problem is almost always the ACC fuse as all of those loads are supplied by it. The normal culprit is a short in the cigarette lighter. Don't just visually check the fuses as they can look OK but still be open. Check fuses with a meter or test light. If fuse is good, then I might check fusible links.
