'98 radio/windows problem!

[bobdirects]

My 1998 Continental radio and windows may or may not work when my car starts! Sometimes, they work or DON'T work "in sync"...that is, if my radio is working, the windows will work. If one isn't working, the other will not either.

Sometimes I'm driving and "poof" the radio turns on.

I do notice that normally IN THE MORNING they usually do NOT work, but I have better luck in the AFTERNOON--when the car starts up then, the radio usually will work.

any ideas? I am going NUTS and am reluctant to pay a dealer big $$ to diagnosis the problem.

thanks!!
