Default Power Mirrors Not Working.

I just got a 1998 2 Door Chevy Blazer From my uncle, and right after I went out for the first time with it, I found that the power windows aren't working. I was wondering if anyone knew what/where I could check to fix it. Sorry if this is the wrong area, I'm new to the forum and this is my first post.

try fuses?
switch itself might be bad.
loose wire behind door panel.
i was able to pick up a new switch set for driver door from junk yard for cheap.
easy to swap out.

just a suggestion. try fuse or loose wire first.
i am thinking if both mirrors are out, maybe switch went bad.

common issue. a lot of moisture gets down in those switches on the d side door.
Pull the switches, take them apart, and clean all the contacts with rubbing alcohol and/or a pencil eraser. Re-assemble and give it a go. you can also try diagonal angles. sometime you can "force it".
