My 1996 Chrysler Cirrus is having some type of electrical problem. My blinkers, wipers, AC, radio, and power windows just stop working all at the same time. Its not all the time about once a day. I can turn off my car and restart it and they will work for a few minutes or they may stay working. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My husband checked all the fuses and they all are fine.

We're kinda having the same problem w ours. Sometimes when I start it the windows and blinkers work but there are times that I have to restart it for those to work. When those don't work my air bag light stays on. We're also experiencing it saying that a door is ajar when they're all shut tight. The odamator (dont' think I spelled that right) will say door instead of the reading and here lately it started dinging all the time like the door is open when it's not and it's really starting to get annoying. And now my dome light doesn't work right. I have the switch moved to the off position. Also when it was on the dome light when I hit the brakes it would dim but as soon as I let off the brake it would come back on. I'd really like to know about any recalls for these problems. I'm gonna call the local dealership tomorrow and give them my VIN number cuz if it was never taken in for this recall then they have to fix it. Ours is a 1996 Chrysler Cirrus w a V6.

when you check fuses dont just look at them for fault make sure to test for power also. might be a relay.
