All 4 doors losing electrical power?

[V.S.]

One day all of my power windows and locks just stopped working. Anybody have any idea about what kind of a problem it is?

Check all the fuses, those 2 may be linked together on one fuse. If its broken replace it with a spare that you have there or pick one up from an autozone (dealers rip you off).

My galant did this to me a couple times in the past and just last week it did it again, but this time it was electrical not fuse-related. It cost $150+ because they had to remove the doors. But my galant will probably die the next time the wind blows so you should be luckier.

Sorry, but I'm pretty much clueless when it comes to maintaing cars(hence getting a camry). Where should I look for the fuse, and how big a deal is changing it?

if you have the ownders manual, it'lll thell you there, otherwise uts usually under the steering wheel somewhere like behind a little fuse door.

Yeah, it was the fuse. The fuse had burned out, but I had to take out the panel under the steering wheel to get to the fuse which was just outside of the fuse box. Then the windows and locks worked.

Now the windows still work, and I hear something moving near the locks whenever I try to (un)lock them, but the locks themselves won't move. The wierd thing is sometimes when I start the car the locks will unlock automatically, but then they won't respond. I still hear something moving whenever I press the lock/unlock button, but with no result. Anyone have any idea what's going wrong with my locks? Particularly, why would something go wrong on all 4 of them so soon after the fuse broke?
