I have a 95 maxima. well i haven't been able to test the fuses b/c none of them will light up so i and none of them have been blown. . I have checked ever fuse in my car and replaces every fusible link. Still my radio, power locks, power window, and clock don't work.

I mean no offense by this, if you are replacing fuses without even looking at them or checking them, troubleshooting an electrical problem isn't something you will learn to do overnight.

a fuse will pass current and open when the current exceeds it's rating.

most fuses have exposed contacts on each end to allow you to test it.

0 volts with a meter means it's good, or 0 ohms...although I wouldn't do too many resistance checks on powered circuits.

you can even use a test light! if it lights.....then you have an open fuse (if the rest of the circuit is closed)

anyways....your problems are obviously not in the fuses, so I will recomend some suplemental reading:

haynes manual for your car....read section on electrical troubleshooting.

buy a multimeter.....read the instructions for the multimeter

infact...those two things will pay for themselfs, probably within this first fix.
