Get a fuse kit that has fuses and a puller and tester from Walmart or local parts store.
Locate the fuse which is either under the hood or under the dashboard on the driver's side.
There may be a sticker on the door that tells you which fuse is for PW or Power Windows.

According to autozone.com:

Inspect/Test/Replace
To remove a fuse:

  • With glass cartridge or blade-type fuses, a special fuse removing tool can be used to remove a bad fuse.
  • Blade-type fuses are easy to remove by hand or with a needle nose pliers.
To replace a fuse:
  • Be sure to replace a fuse with the correct one for the application.
  • SFE (Society of Fuse Engineers) and all-glass cartridge (sometimes called "Bussman" or "Buss") fuses will interchange with one another, so care is required.
  • Be sure that the fuse is the correct rating. Too low an amp rating will result in burned fuses. Too high a rating can cause a fire.
  • Check the end of the fuse for its amp rating. The correct amp rating of the fuse to be used is listed on the fuse block.
  • Fuses are generally numbered, and the main components abbreviated.

  • On late-model cars, there may be icons or symbols indicating which circuits they serve. This identification system is covered in more detail in the owner's and service manuals.
NOTE
To calculate the correct fuse rating, use Watt's law: watts ÷ volts = amperes. For example, if you are installing a pair of 55-watt fog lights, divide 55 by the battery voltage (12 volts) to find out how much current the circuit has to carry. Since 55 ÷ 12 = 4.58, the current is approximately 5 amperes. To allow for current surges, the correct in-line fuse should be rated slightly higher than the normal current flow. In this case, an 8- or 10-ampere fuse would do the job. NOTE
It's advisable to carry an assortment of spare fuses in the glove compartment. It is difficult to know when one will blow. Also, you should learn borrow a fuse from a less critical circuit. For example, it is possible to do without power for the radio or air conditioner, if a fuse is needed for the headlights or brake lights. Make certain, however, that the fuse borrowed and later replaced has the same current rating. Remember that a blown fuse was caused by something going wrong. Replacing the fuse may or may not give a temporary solution to the problem.

Power window fuse

On most models the power window circuit is on a 30amp fuseable link, not a regular fuse. Are you sure you replaced a fuse ?

Driver window won't work

first thing first check ur fuse for the power window. look at ur car manual to locate the switch box. if the fuse is good check the window motor by removing the door panal then locating it inside the door. use a power tester to see if power is getting to the motor by connecting it to the positive (red) wire connected to the window motor. if its not getting power the change the motor. if it is then you may have a window switch problem. if you have change the motor, switch, and fuse the you make have a wire shortage proble so take it to a payed professional for further advice or service. good luck

Automatic door locks stopped working. Power window controls do not work. The only window working is drivers window.

Change the battery in your wireless remote control. Check the fuses located underneath the drivers side steering wheel, flip the fuse box cover lid over and replace the power window and power door lock fuses. The back of the cover lid will have a diagram showing where each fuse is located, replace with the same number amp fuse. If your fuses are good and the battery inside your remote is new then you will need to replace the drivers side power window switch, click on the link below to view a replacement:

Power windows wont roll down

It could be the fuse to the power windows. Check the fuse box . it is on either side of the dash just inside the door. or near the glove box. Look for any burnt fuses and replace them with the same amp fuse. The same color.There is a fuse remover in the fuse box. You use that to remove the fuses by grabbing the fuse with the edge of the tool. And pulling the fuse out.
