Default power window fuses?

1985 Econoline with power windows, no info at all in repair manuals. Anyone know where the fuses are in the box for the motors? I cannot find a fuse diagram anywhere.

Hi Rusty,
I will look through some of my literature and see if I can help you out.

I looked through the stuff I have and can't find anything that has power windows for that year.
What Ford usually did was to use a 30 amp circuit breaker for the power windows because the momentary spike to get the window motor going was enough to blow a fuse. I am pretty sure the window circuit uses a circuit breaker in your fuse panel. I would just take a test lite and make sure every fuse and circuit breaker has continuity through it. If they all do you may have a problem at the drivers door switches. OR , the wire in the the door hinge area may have become separated. What do you think?

I don't know. This was a custom van my in-laws bought new. Not much conforms to standard Fords. For instance, it is a 302 4bbl. Ford says they did not make one in '85. But this is the 2nd '85 with a 302 4 bbl that I have owned.
Only the driver's side motor quit.

If there is power getting to the motor and it still won't work, I would suspect the motor or ground connection for that particular motor.
