Default help help help elec probs

Hi, just had delivered a 2005 crossfire with elec seats etc

After 1 day the seat forward /backward button isn't working, the radio won't turn off and I can't open/lock the car doors with the key for. I also think the roof won't open.

I've looked for a fuse box (found some inside near steering wheel door opening, and about 5 more near the back on the engine bay on the passengers side along side 2 other console type things...

Where should I be looking. Please help

This might sound strange, but get the battery tested. Seems that the Crossfire's electrical system gets a little.. wonky, for lack of better word, when the battery starts to die. I had issues with my driver window randomly going up and down, my wipers twitching, and my wing randomly deploying. A new battery solved it all.

+1 on the new battery.
The MAIN fuse box is underhood on the driver's side at the firewall.
The one on the driver's side console is for lights only.
The fuses inside the black box by the battery are part of the RCM module.
There are 3 BIG bolt-type fuses in the little box in front of the battery, they 3 supply ALL the power to everything. ( except for the unfused battery to starter cable )

You aren't too far away - drop by and visit some weekend, we'll take a run up to Cheaha .....

Not quite - starter motor is direct from the battery.

so a battery that is in the throws of dying will make systems behave oddly due to "lowered" or inconsistent power (even with car running?)? I have BOTH seats that were fine two months ago but neither will do anyting..... car has not had too many miles of late (less than 500 this year) could the battery be the culprit? no other systems seem to have failed....

Could be the seat solenoid (or fuse) has failed. See you checked 30’s is that the solenoid?
Is there any power under the seat?
Starting or posting in more than one thread on a subject causes confusion, especially to old gits like myself.
