very very strange problem

i am having an electrical problem.... all of sudden out of no where my keyless remote stopped woking. (Note: i have a 2001 alero GL) got into my car and noticed my automatic lights didnt work but did manually, mt interior dome lights n rear view lights didnt work, my locks and my trunk wont unlock from the inside but my radio which is a jvc and best buy installed the factory radio in the trunk because the security thingy is attached to it...... i checked some fuses but found nothing.... anyone have this problem... is this something stupid that needs to be replaced ??? please help meeeee !!!!!!!! thanks

Did you check any of the relays under the hood? Also, did you check BOTH fuse blocks? There is one at each end of the dash.

how do i check the relays and how do u get'em out ?? and how do i know if there bad or not ?

Also Seems Like Its Only Effecting The Keyless/security Attributes Of The Car

Well you also said that its effecting the automatic lights. To check the fuse relays, open the hood and to your right above the air box you'll see another black box that says "FUSE RELAY". Unscrew the plastic bolt in the top and pull the top off. I would start by making sure all of them are plugged in all the way. In the owners manual you'll see the schematics for the stuff in the box, letting you know which one is for what. Pull the ones that you think would deal the most with your issue. Check to see if any are burnt or anything like that. Other than this stuff, I don't know what else to tell you to look for. It's obviously something electrical, and to be honest, the electrical stuff on this car is not my strong point. Sorry. I do believe though that what you're explaining sounds most like a fuse or relay issue.

i know how to get to the relay boxes n all but how do u pull them out like the fuses ??? they wont come out like a fuse... looks like there in there with 2 teeth

I thought you could just pull them with your hands with no problem. I pulled the one for the fuel pump okay when I changed my fuel filter.

well like the relays that are inside the car (in the fuse box) they will not pull out easily.. they wont pull out at all... i'm talking about the dr unlock, trunk, dr driver lock, etc) the 5 bigger boxes

theres nothing under the hood fuse box that would remotely be involved
