1990 2.6L Electrical Issues + some

My brother bought a 1990 BroncoII with what he believes to be a 2.6L straight 6 and automatic trans. He's not very mechanically inclined and I haven't seen it yet but I want to have a place to start when I'm able to go help him. It runs fairly well and gets decent enough mileage but there are some issues. I guess it is an XLT because it has power locks, windows, and push button 4x4. The only thing that works is the radio. The A/C doesn't do anything, the locks don't work, and the 4x4 doesn't work. The t case and all are supposed to be good but the button activates nothing. Are there some common things I can check on it to start eliminating possibilities? Obviously I'll hit fuses first but then what...

I don't KNOW for sure. That's just what he said when he gave me info. Broncos are NOT my specialty.

After fuses being checked ..

Not positive if it has one , but on the newer vehicles , it may be a GEM module issue...

It will be a 2.9 V-6, the only engine offered stock in a B2 other than the earlier 2.8 V-6.

Sure is. I finally got him to check for me today. So do you know if they have a GEM module then?
