electrical issues

hey there everyone, i'm stumped... i picked up a 1998 expedition for what i thought was a good price. it needed a few things like brakes and ball joints. i have replaced all of those and am pretty happy with the truck. now here's my last problem(s) the dome lights , running board lights , vent windows , and amp are not working. it was like that when i got it. checked the usual suspects (fuses) all are fine... in searching this forum and basic internet searches have come up with nothing . alot of the searches come back to the lights staying on . i'm lost . any help would be great. thanks in advance...

The contacts in the accessory delay relay could be shot. Try swapping that out to see if the problem clears up. It's in the fuse box under the dash.
