How did you check the fuses?
Well worth check voltage on the actual wiring out of the fuse, as the fuse clips can have corrosion.
Also check the wiring diagram, I reckon everything you mention is on one fuse? May even be another connector?

All the things you have mentioned are on the ignition controlled fuse which should be the lower one of the two but in any case is the one with green wires on one side and white on the other.
A simple test light will tell if you have continuity, start on the white wires and work you way across, the problem will be in there somewhere.

clean the terminals in the fuse box.....

Better still take the fuse box off and soak it in bilt hamber deox for a bit...gets rid of all the dullness.
