recently my car has had a few problems
1) my radio does not seem to work anymore.  i have changed all of the
fuses in my car.  i think that there is no power going to the radio
either.  all of the wires are hooked up correctly.  do u think that
the motor for the antenna is broken?  because the antenna doesnt go up
no matter what.
2) the passenger window does not move at all.  when i click on the
switch for it to go down, it doesnt even make a sound.  do u think
this could be the regulator or motor?

A simple test light will verify if there is 12V going to the radio.
If it isn't there, then trace the wiring back.  I'd check for 12V on
both sides of the fuse for the radio too.

If there is no power to the radio, then the antenna won't go up.

If it doesn't make a sound, it's not the regulator.   It could be the
motor, switch, fuse, loose wire, etc.

Window switch connects to a relay which connects to the regulator
(motor). Check the relay by interchanging it with another before opening
the door.

Alot of time on this car... it is the window switch that need to be
disassembled and contact cleaned... I would do this before anything else.
