My power locks, power windows, interior light, and keyless entry stopped working. When you turn the car off the radio used to keep playing but that doesn't work any more either. Also the air compressor at the back stopped working. Is there something that operates all of these features? I can't find anything (fuse or relay) that appears to operate all these things. About 6 months ago the power locks started going on and off while I was driving, but it only lasted about 20 mins. Also, the gas gauge stopped working about 2 months ago (I don't think this is related) and the change oil light can't be reset. Is

You may have a body control module acting up. Or it could be corrision in the wiring under the carpet. I would have the body control module scanned. Some 2000 ventures have a body control module and some didnt. Some also had a retained power accessory relay that went bad also that was the the ciruit with those concerns. Such as your radio would stay on until you open your door. As for the fuel gauge, alot of the time it is a fuel level sensor that goes bad. If this helps let me know. I can try to help you more with it. If you want to look at these compontants, there are located by the passenger side kick panel and passenger.
