check your main relay, do a search(the one in red at the top) for main relay look for one with your year make and model to find the location and how to check it. for example on the 92-95 it is under the dash on the drivers side, good luck

The main relay is really crap and under hot weather the contact solders can melt, causing this problem. I had this happen to me a few times, sometimes it'll come back to life when it cools, but I've already changed the relay a couple of times. This one has been good for a couple of months now, they're usually easy to pick up at a junk yard.

Good luck!
