lotsa electrical problems!

So friday morning right before heading out to the beach I go through my gauge displays and temperture shows (---).. I'm like aww mann one of thoes tsb's I read b4 oh well right?... kinda chilly so turned on the heater... didn't work.. wtf good day to have this problem (another tsb??) anyway I didn't have time to bring it in so just scheduled for next sat... on the way back I had my friend drive and found out he couldn't adjust the power mirrors. Weird thing is when I put it in reverse the setting for the right one still moved. so now I have the hazards that dont stay on, trunk button illumination out, temp gauge not working, no climate control, and mirrors don't adjust. OH and I just found out my seat warmers don't work or light up at night.... MY WINDSHIELD WASHERS WORK THOUGH any thoughts??

THANKS, the thing is that some of the stuff listed works and some don't. I wonder if it's more than just a blown fuse.

It depends on the relays. I suspect the fuse is either not firmly in or is blown. Some components may have several fail-safe connections so not all components will go out necessarily if the fuse goes out. What I would do is check the fuse, if it's blown then buy a pack of fuses w/ a mixed range for a few dollars and make sure you have a couple 10A fuses. A mixed pack of fuses is good to have around anyways.
