First guess would be to check the fuses.

Other than that, suggest to get a wiring diagram - shop manuals like Chilton's, Haynes, etc. have these - and go on a divide-and-conquer mission.

I've checked all the fuses and they are good. I talked to someone and looked at some wiring diagrams and he thinks the G200 ground is loose because everything that doesnt work grounds to that ground point. would you or anyone else hapen to know where that ground point is located on the vehicle.

I rely need help I read another post that had the same problem. He said he heard a relay clicking when things went on and off I hear the same thing. someone said it probably had something to do with the window's. I agree with that but how does that effect the dome light.
