Electrical question, 90 Lumina

So I am going thru this car I have for sale in the Vehicles section. Has some things that don't work, some that do.

Not working are the Door Locks, trunk lite, courtesy lites, glovebox lite, underhood lite, and cigarette lighter. There was a penny in the cigarette lighter and I an wondering if there is a master 12V circuit that all of these things are on.

I replaced the window motor in the passenger side, which was bad, and there is no voltage going to the door locks, so I am thinking that maybe there is an ACCY fuse somewhere, but I cannot find it. There are 2 fuse panels, one in the glove box and one under the hood, all have good fuses.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

check the wires under the fuse box i had a 93 lumina that had the power wires under the fuse box under the hood corrode and break..Use a multimeter and see if you got power going to fuses
 
Check the fuseable links comming off the starter terminal on the front of the engine. Water infiltration and corrosion are common on those cars and it will cuase those circuts to go dark.
 
^Yep, at the front, fackin Chevy. I would look under the hood first, I doubt it's an issue inside, the wires corrode under the hood quite often. Unless maybe someone had a bumpin' system in there at one time.
 
No system I'm sure. It was bone stock when I got it and we did have a new aftermarket stereo installed, but far from a 'system.' On that note, maybe I should check the 'installation' of the radio. Although all the aforementioned equipment worked fine after the install.

I can look under the hood again, but I only saw the one. I think there were circuit breakers in there in addition to fuses, could it be those??
