Or, take the fuse out and check the 2 fuse blades for continuity.Originally Posted by vxfocus
Either way will tell you if the fuse is good or not.

If you're still having the problem after this long, there are two fuses that should be checked. CB-15 (15 amp) and CB-27 (20 amp).
If both of those fuses are good, take a look at your power window relay (behind left kick panel on drivers side - it's the relay on the very bottom). Maybe it needs to be reseated? There are a couple of other relays above the power window relay, and if they're the same part number, you could also try swapping their positions to see if a different relay might get your windows working again.
If it's none of those things, well, we'll just try something else...

Coastie,
It kinda got buried above but it's important that the very firstest thing you should check is that the window lock button isn't engaged. I'm pretty sure that almost every one of us has experienced that WTF moment when our windows stopped working only to find that the stupid button was pushed.

LOL, ty tom but i did that. Anywho, thank you guys found the issue. It was the window relay in the driver left kick panel. I tried looking for this relay before, but didn't know it was inside the plastic piece. Well now i need to buy one. Will see if autozone or a store like that carries one. Thanx again to Y33 and all who helped me. Thank you Kat for brining this thread back from the grave.
Now I can enjoy good old Florida winter fresh air, other then just my roof scoop.

Yup, check the relay.
If you dont already have it, download the VX shop manual, I think Billy has a copy here on the site, it will tell you exactly how to trace it back to the relay and test the relay itself.
My guess is a bad relay or door panel switch...
