what fuses correspond to the power windows and the power doorlocks? is it one fuse for both those items, because i dont think both at the same would stop working like that. also would that cause the remote not to work either? i changed the battery in it because i thought it was dead, do i have reprogram it to the car or not? also does anyone have a wiring diagram for the heater blower relay because my only #4 works, number 1,2, and 3 dont work.

Hey i have a 95 maxima GLE. I bought a keyless entry module off of ebay. i just programmed it myself the standard way following these online forums. for some reason when i press unlock once the driver door doesnt open. when i press it twice the other three doors open but the driver door still doesnt open. same thing with locking. when i press lock once nothing happens, where as the driver door should lock. (right?) but when I press lock twice the back doors and the passenger door locks but not the driver door. guys any idea why this is hapening? module seem to be fine cos when i hold the unlock button down the front windows go down too.
HELP HELP HELP!!!

Get the key to work in the door whatever you do! If the battery ever dies in either the car or the remote, you are S.O.L.!

[but you knew that, right]

yea i knew that but thats the least of my worries right now. i was driving home and my windshield wipers turn on by themselves and i couldnt turn them off, then my light for the rear defroster starts blinking as well as my security light, now my defroster doesnt work, the first setting for the windshield wipers. when i press the windshield washer its sprays but doesnt wipe. im so confused and at the same time pissed off

You should find some wiring diagrams for the components that aren't working. If your fuse(s) has mysteriously blown, that means you have a short to ground before the load in that circuit. If you have a voltometer you can measure the voltage drops across the connectors in the pertinent circuit in a systematic order... Can't help you much more than that without looking at the diagrams and car myself.
