Could be anything from a loose battery cable to faulty relays or the body control module. Your best bet in helping trouble shoot the problem is to check your onboard diagnostics for trouble codes, and if you intend to keep the car you really should get one of the many chassis service manuals offered on Ebay. That manual has every little detail on that car ( except how to take the door panels off, but other than that it's extremely detailed including highly detaile troubleshooting guides and related tests that you run through the IPC. Let me know if I can help with getting you started on checking trouble codes. Also I have lots of parts for that car should something need to be replaced.
