When repositioning some of my charge pipes today, I got in my car and noticed my dome lights weren't going on. The door switch wasn't working on the dash and so I immediately headed toward the fuse panel for the Room fuse. No blown fuse; damn. I decided to go inside and get my handy dandy manual and locked the door, but the other lock didn't move. I turned the car on and the radio wouldn't come on. Ugh. So I made sure the car started and ran, which it does, and everything but the dome light, locks, and radio do not work. While looking at my manual, I traced all three to Sub fusible link 6(battery)--->W/R wire to junction block---> Fuse 19(Room)---> Listed stuff above.
I checked for power and I get power at the fuse box under the hood and power at the connection on the junction block. I do NOT get power at the Fuse 19(Room).
I checked all the fuses in the car with my DVOm and they all have continuity and I even tried some new fuses just incase I did something wrong. All fuses are good.
My conclusion is that I need a new junction block. Does this sound right to you other guys? I've never heard of the junction blocks in these cars going bad, but there's a first for everything. There are several other threads on this topic but they seem to end with no conclusion and no resolve, so I want to get a second opinion before I go head to the junk yard in search of a new junction block.
