Glitchy interior

Hello im new here, I recently bought a 97 GTP but its has some glitches that are driving me nuts, so i'll get started with my list.

The AC fans only works on setting 5
The fog lights only sometimes work
The interior lights don't work (sunvisor, roof, rear view)

A Breaker pops every few seconds, driving or sitting or when the cars off but I have not opened the door yet.

I tryed to install my aftermarket stereo, and it works but everytime that breaker pops the stereo turns off then back on.

I can't connect any of these so i don't know whats wrong with the car. Iv checked fuses and they seem fine and iv looked for broken grounds but no luck.. granted I havn't looked to hard under the dash for broken grounds but i thought i would seek some insight.

any ideas?
 


I found 2 relays under the dash next to the fuse box and they are whats making the poping.

Anyone know what these are for? and do you think I should replace them or is something else causing them to trip.
 
I bought a new relay and its pops, so the relays arnt the problem. I think the circuit causing the relay to pop is for all of the interior. I don't know where to start.. so many wires under the dash.
 


After trying to test some more stuff I found the Big blue wire and the small black with white strip are the ones causing the problem.. or 1 is causing the others problem.

But i have no idea where these go or what they do other then somehow link to interior.

I can't find any info on the web, anyone have any ideas?
 
I tested my ignition switch because my fans don't work on settings 1-4 but the switch is putting out a constant 12v sooo
 
Back from the dead.. stil cant figure this **** out

I found that if i pull the interior lights fuse the relay does not trip and the radio works..

I also found that if i pull the mall fuse it has the same effect...

Sooo.. BCM problem?? i dont see any signs of anything aftermarket ever installed (radio or alarm) how ever my keyfob( thats broken ) is for a 05 + car.. so what gives?
 
my old prix did the same thing with the blower. its either the blower motor resistor, or the ignition switch. i found a thread somewhere or it may have been a vid on youtube about it. all i can say on that is keep researching youll find it eventually. i dont know about your other problm tho. deffinitly electrical obv. check the bulbs and there hoseings for corosion and sh1t. my budddy had a similar problem in his nissan. good luck
 


Oh sorry, to update the thread, yes the blower motor was trashed and i replaced it.
The fog lights is a short from a front end wreck the car was in.

So the only thing left is my interior lights that are driving me crazy.

Iv been checking every light bulb i can find and they seem to be ok, i pulled the passenger seat out to start looking at the harness under the carpet, One thing i noticed was on the passenger side it seems the window was not all the way rolled up when the car was painted and some water got in when wetsanding. But still no sights of any breaks or anything..
