Default SC300 Windows won’t roll down

For some reason my driver and passenger windows will not roll down. I noticed that the ECU-IG fuse keeps instantly blowing every time I put a new one in. The window switch gets no power to it, and I checked all the wires that go in the door jamb to the car. Anyone have any other ideas?

If both are not working and you know you have power to the main window switch panel, you probably have a broken ground to the door. My 96 had the same issue and it was a grounding issue. I couldn’t find it so I ran another ground and both windows then worked.

The window switch has no power getting to it. Should I just make my own ground and connect it to the switch itself? If so which pin/what color wire.

Where is the ground to the door? I'm having a power door lock issue, and it could be that.
