Default Help, power windows.

Before I start ripping stuff apart... My power windows in my 75 corvette both went out... They just stopped working. They are stuck in there current position of almost all the way up. I know it's not the motors because they were working GREAT literally 2 days ago. They don't budge or make a noise when I press the switch to go up and down. What could be the problem? Is it a relay? A fuse I'm blind and can't see? Thanks much!!

Okay, now my blinkers aren't working. The oil pressure is at S at the end of "oil press". Is it a relay? If so where is it?

The power window wiring harness plugs into the main fuse block with two wires and these run to the relay which is mounted under the console. There is no other fuse in the wiring.

I have no idea why the blinkers would quit at the same time.

Okay, problem solved.... Do not ask me how or why... It's got a 350 TBI motor but has the same wiring... The fuse for my gauges went out and my directional signals (blinkers) and for some reason when I put new ones in it fixed my windows. Again, dont ask me, just happy it is fixed.
