My son has a 98 sport he is having an electrical problem with. It lost the instrument g's, dome light, power lock still can unlock just no lock, and a couple of other things I cant remember all at the same time. Any help would be great thanks, Dain

Are you sure the courtesey fuse is good? Check for broken wires in the boot that runs from the body to the door.

ALL FUSES WERE CHECKED. He was messing with the under hood light when this happened and the radio is not working also. Is there a relay for this part of the system?
