Default THANKS for blown fuse advice!

I wrote the forum about the fuses blowing on my '98 Eldorado and received help from slowroll. I just wanted to say THANKS for the direction.Especially the hint about the wire color and the underhood lamp. That's exactly where the wire was grounding out!Saved me LOTS of time. As soon as I figure out why mydriver side window won't work anymore, I can get through inspection. I'll take ideas on the order to progress through that if anyone's offering.
Only the driver's side is effected. Motor or switch....THAT is the question? Great Forum, Thanks again! Miss K

Most thanks for your reply. Nice to hear that slowroll or one of the techs here was able to help and then hear about the end result, it's not required but appreciated.

Miss K... driver window... when you do the switch, do you hear anything? try this, if window is up, hold switch for window to go down. while holding switch, open and close door a few times. that might jar switch, if it is switch???? let us know....

rickyd has good suggestion, You could remove door trim panel, It LIFTS OFF doesn't pull off. Check for power and ground at motor. To remove door trim panel remove bezel around door release handle, switch panel, screw behind it, there is also a hidden screw behind flap at end of door panel pocket.
