Default Lost power windows and heater blower

I had a nice puff of smoke come out from under the dash. After that I lost power windows and my heat/air blower only seems to work on low. This could be just the air circulating through it it's so low. I have looked at all my fuses. I have replaced the ignition switch. I have also replaced the blower motor resister. I don't see any physical damage to the wiring but I can't seem to track this down. The schematic in my Chilton doesn't give me a very good wiring diagram. Anyone got any ideas?

What year is your truck, what is the mileage on it?

I have the exact same problem going on. My power locks, as well as the A/C blower will not work most of the time, but now and again they will work perfectly fine. If you have any idea what is causing this, I would LOVE to find out. (ALL of this happened 13 days after my 3YR, 36K mile warranty expired)

Brian if I were you I would ask at the dealer and see if they can cover it for you. Dodge Service Dept's are empowered to assist with repairs after the warranty expires. And check to be sure the warranty is really expired. The last few years Dodge has been giving or offering the 7/70 warranty on new trucks.
