1998 saturn station wagon did not start and power not working only to power locks and interior lights (all other power working/ i.E headlights horn, windows, etc). I changed the door lock relays in the fuse box and it started right up however then power windows stopped working. I drove the car about 400 miles (turning on and off at least 20 times) with no problem). Then same problem happened. I played around with all the rtelays (pulling them in and out) and then the car started). Drove about 2 miles and truned it off. Now car won't start again. I then replaced all the relays (in internal fuse box near dash by front passeneger seat but still won't start. Any ideas. PS alarm system has been disabled for 6 months no problems during that time

Seeing how those lock relays wont make u lose power or cause the car not start u ethier have a bad fuse box or a loose connection to the use box. Try pushing on the fuse box while watching for power to return with the key on. Let me know what u find.
