Default Electrical Demon

99 XJ. Bought the Jeep salvaged, Driver's door was hit by another car causing the top hinge pin to break. I replaced the door.

Virtually every accessory inside the Jeep is not working. Gauge cluster has no lights and none of the gauges move. HVAC controls dont work. Radio inop. Turn signals inop. Rear power windows work, front do not. Brake lights and tail lights work.

What powers up all these accessories?

Where do I start?

Thanks!

I'd start at the fuse box and replace any blown fuses and test for power at that point. If you get no power there, start narrowing down between the battery and the fuse box. With so many things out, it's either a lot of little things blew out or a big thing really close to the battery.

Grab a PDF download of the FSM from Cruiser54.com -> Technical manuals and whip out your multimeter!
