Need Low Cost Electrical Work
Hello....
Well after many months of looking and checking around with friends i been trying to find someone local (sacramento)that can help me.... I cannot afford to pay $100/hr to have someone figure out why my power windows dont work..... Is there someone that can try to fix it as a side job or something....
Please.....

I saw Be// he checked the door and stuff and wasnt able to figure it out and then i called him 2 different times and he said he was busy....
well im trying to save money. i rather know the problem and put 75 towards fixing the problem..... i dont want to go and spend 75 bucks a half day and have then not know what the problem is..... a lost of 75 bucks and a lost of a half a day is not good
Shop price is is going to be 75 for diagnos plus 95HR plus parts.... i dont want to spend 400 on something like this...

well to make a long story short.... had some kind of short in my car when someone from a shop turned the radio to loud or something and made some wires behind the passenger floor fuse box melt together.... a/c wasnt working so i go a new double din pioneer with stock non navi climate controls.... after that the climate control didnt work and my friend found out it was a bad ground... he got that grounded to make it work but then the windows stop working from inside the car.... you can use the key from the door to roll the windows up and down but not from inside the car with any window switch.... when i turn the lights on the climate control lights(green tint) turn off. when i leave the the headlight lights on and i turn the car off i see the air bag light dimly lit... so i dont know if there a bad ground somewhere or something else is the problem.

You have a short. Somewhere where the wires burnt up, either wires carrying the juice is grounding out to the body or another wire. You should start hunting before you light your car up.
reaso i say there is a short because you describe how things are staying lit even though power is off. e.g Ab light. This will also drain your battery.
Aslo, if people are willing to help you, why can't you drive the car to them?
