Weird problem with the power windows
I have a 97 LS 4x4. One day the window switches stopped working, except on the drivers door. Is there a relay or fuse that I could check/change?
I feel like an idoit asking this but I havent had a chance to work on it since its been below zero the last couple days, and my mom has been using it. If I get told an easy couple things to check I could just get it fixed in a few minutes instead of trouble shooting. Thanks.

All window circuits go through the driver side window switch. If the others all quit at the same time, chances are pretty good the problem is in the driver, (master) switch. Rain & snow ends up in the switch due to where it's located. Open the window just a bit when it's raining, water goes straight to the switch. Open the door in the Winter, snow falls right on the switch, as a result the terminals corrode. Might try some electronics contact cleaner, Radio Shack has it. Then blow it out with compressed air. If it works, get a new switch. Troubleshooting the circuits in the switch can be quite time consuming, if you need a schematic, let me know.
