Hmmm... Got any power to the doors at all? Probably gonna have to pull the interior panels at some point, neither side is working? Is this truck pretty rusty? Was all this stuff workin and just quit all of a sudden recently, or has it been like that for a while? Give a little more background so we can maybe figure out what happened, please  ;D

On the drivers side between the door and the body, slice the rubber boot open and look at wires in there. Very common spot to break because of door opening and closing so much.

Yup, and if Im not mistaken, the juice goes through them wires right there first before it gets over to the passenger side because the switch on driver door also can control the p/s door and all that

I believe those have a circuit breaker, not a fuse.

Yup. Could be the d/s switch, too - everything goes through it first

The switch is on the driver side door. All the power goes through it 1st. Look at the wires where they leave the truck cab and enter the door, theyre probably broke.

They do run off a auto reset breaker but that will not be your problem as they never ever go bad.

As others have said check the wires going into the drivers door and driver side switch...it will be one or the other!

The breaker is in the fusebox and is a little silver box thing, plugs in just like a fuse. These seldom go bad, but anythings possible..

best thing you could do is go buy a test light & start by checking all your fuse with it, then I would prob. pull the door panel & check to make sure you are getting power & grounds to the switches & go from there ?  like stated with the wires in between the body & door

Was having the same issue w my  S10 power windows, just got some manual regulators out of a doner,  tired of not being able to roll the windows up when the muds flying and filling up the inside  LOL.
