electrical issues
ok im trying to pull the camaro out of the garage to make some room for the engine install... the only problem its the weather is a little gray and my windows are open and i cant get them up. the only electrical ive messed with is pulling the column to replace the ignition cylinder. ive triple checked the wiring for that and it all looks good. also the turn/bright light switch doesnt work neither does the radio but the hazard switch does before i parked the car everything worked. now theres 2 plugs under the dash that i have no idea what they plug into ive looked and cant see anything in the area
any ideas

Not really sure about your loose wires. However, all things that are not working are controlled by the RAP module (Retained Acessory Power). Could be that the loose connectors belong to the RAP, so take a look under the dash.

so that rap module runs (makes a clicking noise) after about 5 mins of shutting the doors so i unplugged it is that a sign of a failing module (also its plugged in now and still no windows... also no clicking) also you know where i can get a new one i cant find anything

if its clicking. than it failed. had the same problem. no local parts store sells it and the dealer wants $189 for it. somehow a power wire got shorted. I ended up going to a yard and pulling one $45

ok so i got the pass side window up no problem i figured out what wires go to the motor and jumped them to the battery... the driver side isnt going so well its a blue and brown wire but nothing happens when i jump them to the battery and i know the motor works

Where are you jumping the wires from, under the dash or inside the door? If under the dash, you could have a broken wire. Where they go thru the rubber boot at the hinge pillar is a popular place for the wires to bend and crack.
