Answer
Hi William:

well first off if none of the power windows work it's either a wiring problem going to the switch/bad ckt. breaker or a bad switch... I doubt you have every window motor bad.

As for the OBDII connector it much have blown fuse. that car has 2 fuse boxes. 1 behind the glove box door and 1 under the hood. The fuse is more than likley the one for the lighter that blew look for a fuse marked cigar or power accy.

if none of the blower speeds work you have either a blower motor that went bad or the blower motor resisitor has gone bad. It's very un common for thye control head to go bad. The air noise you hear when changing modes on the control head is normal that car has vacuum controlled doors inside the heater & A/C box.

Good luck :}
