I need help!!

[Masa]

1994 Saab 900s 2.5 / original engine & Auto transmission / 114,400 Km / Excellent Shape

However, I have an issue that has me worrying a lot about my pocket book!!

Here is the situation:

When I turn on the car, the key turns over and the engine starts. Great!! No problem right? However within 1-5 minutes, small auxiliary electronics fail all at once.

The known electronics that fail are,

1. Windshield Wipers
2. Power Windows
3. Turn Signals
4. Blower
5. Cigarette Lighter (tested this just to be sure)


Yet, other key items do work. Such as:

1. Head Lights
2. Fog Lights
3. Tail Lights
4. Emergency Lights
5. Radio

Now here is an interesting piece of information. When I put the car in park and turn the car off, the electronics come back on! ...but only for a few moments, before they fail again. Which leads me to believe there is an issue with a relay. However I'm not quite sure which relay, and where to find it.

I appreciate your help immensely!

my first thought (no confirmation but it could be) is the switch starter, bad contact 15 terminal with a lot of drop tension due to carbon between contacts get hot and disconnect the line. move the key in the starter for if you can find sporadic contacts.
