Sounds like you have several electrical problems. Go pick up a Haynes manual at AutoZone or one of those stores that cater to home mechanics.

SOURCE: low beam head lights won't work

Check your relay switches under the hood fuse box. They should be a light grey from factory, they are about 1 x 1" in size and there are a few in there. Pull one out at a time and if they look brownish or yellowing replace. Go to Napa or Auto Zone for $15.99 a peice that most likely will fix it.

Did you recently have a loss of power to the car? change the battery? if so, you need to reset your system. My husband and I just figured this out this weekend. His sunroof hasn't worked in two years and it turns out you have to reset all the power options in the car. Google 2000 cadillac catera %calibrate ETC% loss of power, you'll find the step by step instructions for recalibrating the car's computer and resetting the power options

SOURCE: Radio, trunk and gas door do not work

Check all fuses both inside the car and under the hood. Consult the owners manual for the location of the fuse boxes.

Otherwise, have a mechanic troubleshoot the cars electrical system.

Trunk wont release with button on dash or using key fob

Hi, I believe this may be a fuse problem. The owners manual will show you the fuse box or boxes locations and what each fuse powers. If it is a blown fuse it may be that something in the trunk pinched the wire and shorted it. The wires as they run from the body to the trunk lid is a good place to check for a pinched wire or short. The unlock solenoid may be the culprit if it shorted out, just a possibility. If a fuse is blown, replace it then check to see if the brake light works. If so then try opening the trunk electronically, if the fuse blows again then you know that circuit is the problem. Good Luck, Jim

Gas tank won't open, trunk won't open, radio stopped working, left tail lamp won't work

It's the body control module. It's located under the dash to the left of the steering column. I had same problem, went to the junk yard and bought one and the problem went away. Dealer wants $600.00-700.00 for the BCM, I paid $30.00
