Default 1996 S500 Sedan Problems

My wife's 1996 S500 had developed a couple of problems that I would appreciate any help with.

1) All four wIndows won't roll down at all. Fuses are fine
2) The cars has started shutting of at idle and under acceleration. If you keep one the gas it will start back up. It does not do it all the time but when it starts doing it, it does it a bunch.

Thanks in advance.

-Scott

fuses 5, 11 and 35 all okay?

these are all controlled by CF control module. it is located on the rear right side of the trunk (somewhere on top of battery).

check that all of those connectors are okay and got power on terminals 21, 16, 8 on connector A.

Sleepwalker, thanks for the reply. I have pulled every fuse in both the trunk and under the hood. None are blown.
If you don't mind, could you explain you post to me.

1) CF?
2) How would I check to see if I have power on the terminals and what do you mean by connector A?

Sorry about the lack of knowledge.

there connectors A,B,C... on it.
on everyconnector, there are pins 1,2,3,4.... you test from those. use a test light or multimeter. (12volts).
