        There will be multiple fuse locations on there. Or there may be a large connection on or near the interior interior fuse block that got loose

              Sounds like a complete failure of the internal lights.

              Ill bet there is a relay or 2 under hood that controls some/most or all of the above.

                All youse is wrong. There is a body control module that is at the drivers kick near the fuse panel. You'll need to get the model numbers off of it to be able to replace it, as they are specific to the vehicle. Couple hundy and the dealer. Ebay and car-part.com should be much cheaper.

                  if I remember correctly there was an ssm on those cars with multiple issues. I believe it had to do with water getting into the connector on the prndl switch on the tranny. I just looked on the ford web site but with your vin # its hard to tell if it open for this car and year.
                  it's almost allstock! except the wheels.

                          Electrical Problem

                          If you don't mind a ride to St. Paul, go to Schelen Gray Auto Electric on Snelling near I-94. When I was having electrical problems that no one could find on my mustang, I asked mustang members for ideas and this was one of them. I had multiple problems that these guys were able to fix.
