Does your horn work? All the things you mentioned work off the ignition switch. Might want to look there.

Constant or with key on? You need to check that you have power(key on) to(and after) the fuse for power windows, radio & blower motor. These all get power after the key is on.

My stereo hasn't quit working. is there a possibility that I get a bad ignition switch and it'd be a good idea to try different one just wondering? Came from auto douche bags
