Default proper fuse for window operation

1969 corvette L46

My electric windows are not working. Both sides.

Can someone tell me which fuse is associated with the windows.

I'm hoping that is the problem. For me anyway it is very difficult for me to access the fuse box so I would like to just go for the correct fuse and replace it rather than try to test each one.

Thanks for your help.

IIRC, there is a circuit breaker for the windows under the hood.

I assume the photo below is the circuit breaker. Correct?

If it is how do I determine if it is working properly? Continuity between the two terminals?

Thanks for your help.

Hi b,
The Chassis Service Manual indicates there's a connection at the fuse panel and at the horn relay for the power-window harness.
There appears to be an additional relay and ground connection under the shifter console.
You might check all those too.
Regards,
Alan
