Welcome to ZDriver! Have you checked the fuses?

Check your fusable links (lil black box by the battery) and also the smaller accessory wires that connect to the + battery terminal.

Sounds like a main + wire isn't getting power.

it contains the fuse links which act like modern day maxifuses to control higher currents then your standard fuse will. If one has melted then you'll lose power to what ever part of the car that particular link routes power to.

I'd start checking around under your dash for a loose ground or connector. Check under the passenger side and you'll find a junction block and what not. Just start investigating and see what you come up with.
