Power windows problems - '98 XJ

Need some help with a power window problem on a 4 door XJ.  All windows, locks, and mirrors work fine from the driver's switch however, windows do not work from the respective door switches.  I swapped out the driver's side switch (JY through it in for nothing) but it has the same problem.  Looks like a break in the power from the driver's switch to the other door switches, is there a fuseable link or breaker/fuse somewhere that i am missing?  Anyone have a wiring schematic?

Appreciate your experience,
Ty

You can down load the Factory Service Manual HERE as well.  There isn't one listed for 98 but there is for 97 and 99.  Can't be that much different.

Absolutely perfect!  My daughter is excited that the windows on her XJ now work correctly.  I also took the drivers seat apart and welded up the busted lower seat frame. 

Next task is cutting out the rotted rockers and replacing them with steel rectangular tube rocker/slider ... that one might take some time though.

Take the driver side door sock off and check the wires. Mine did the same thing on my XJ and ZJ and it was some broken wires in the door sock. Splice some new wire on and your good to go. Good luck.
