Checked the fuses in the little box under the dash. Is there another I'm missing?
Wipers not working or brake/tail lights and the gas gauge has stopped working.
This morning I'm going to rig up a circuit tester and maybe run a hot from the battery.

Ideas???

Got it worked out, bad ground in the trunk,,forgot to check the wipers

Thanks for posting the link to the manual.

We put the carpet, seats, side panels back in and let my son take his Mom for a ride around the block.
He said it stalled twice and stalled again pulling into the drive,,,alt must not be charging, battery almost dead when he tried to restart.
