Power Window Switch
Without warning, the window on the driver's side of my 95 LT1 stopped going up and down. Thankfully, it is in the up position. The passenger's side window already had a problem. It would go up and down using the driver's switch, but only up using the passenger's switch.
I assume the the fuse (a large silver colored one) is okay since the passenger window will still go up and down using the the driver's switch.
Am I correct in assuming the switch on the driver's side is bad? And possibly the one on the passenger's side, too?
Is it a major job for a non-mechanically inclinded person to replace the switches?

There's a thermal fuse between the switches and the motor. If the motor is stiff or overloaded, the fuse heats up and disconnects, then resets when it cools.
If it was a sudden failure though, its probably the switch.
