Default 95 mustang electric problems

Hello everyone,
I am new to this forum. I have a question for everyone and I would appreciate any amount of input I can be given I have a 95 mustang. I was driving one day when all of the sudden my cd player, speedomoter, and electric locks stopped working. First off, my lights in which light up my speedomoter, odomoter etc havent worked in years. My odometer hasnt worked in over a year either. What is happening here? Is there something that is seriously messing up or is it minor? Would it be a fuse? My locks are weird. When my car is on...they will lock but will not unlock. When my car is off they will do neither. My windows still work and so do my electric mirrors. I just need some help because im not a great mechanic by any means. And I cannot stand driving without my radio. Someone please help!! Thank you. -Daniel

sounds like you might have a short somewhere in the wiring harness. Easiest way to find out, would be to pick something and trace the wires to find out if they are damaged or the inline fuse on the "hot wire" is blown. If that doesn't work there might be a few cracks in the main harness under the hood. Seen it before. Or you could get a volt meter and check the wires for connectivity.

Sounds like a fuse.

grab your owners manual, and look to see which fuse those items are on. pull the fuse and see if the fusible link is broken.

If so, replace it, and see how long the new one lasts. if it goes out right away, you've got something wrong. If not -you're good to go!
