2005 KIA Sportage,park lights, power windows, power locks, dash lights, interior lights, clock, radio, all are dead. I checked all fuses inside drivers compartment and all fuses and relays under the hood, They are all good. The clock and radio come on sometimes, but when i turn on the park lights, or touch power lock or power windows, I hear a clicking sound near the fuse panel inside the compartment and they go dead also. Vehicle runs normal.Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Paul

What lead up to this?
How did you test these fuses?
Did you check the large maxi-fuses too.

Hi,
thanks for replying
One evening i was on the way to work and i lowered the window, i put it up again, then everything i mentioned went dead, I checked fuses out of circuit with a multimeter. I took apart the door switch thinking it may have stuck, but all switches are good.

If you can't see anything obvious then you are going to have to take one circuit and troubleshoot it using a wiring diagram. When you find the source of one problem, you will likely find all of them.
Windows
Courtesy lights

Found the trouble, bad wire between under hood fuse panel to under dash fuse panel,The 60 amp power wire, 60 amp fuse is OK, fuse holder is OK, With test light it seemed like wire was OK, but when the wire was attached to fuse panel, it lost power, so I ran a wire from the battery, spliced it to suspected wire, and everything worked normal, Its just a temp fix, when the weather warms up, I will try to find the bad wire.
