Adjusted the mirrors and all of a sudden the power went out in the dash. All the guages, door locks, door mirrors etc went out. Any ideas on what to check? Thanks!

    Check the 10 amp IP1 fuse in the right hand rear fuse box. This fuse box may be located under the back seat.

    The orange wire has battery power, it is the only one with power. ?

    All of the items you memtioned share power from the same fuse. Try checking for power to the mirror switch, the orange wire should have battery power. If it does not there is an open wire between the fuse and the mirror switch.
