Default Accord Ex Driver Window won't work!

Hello all,
So my driver window on my 4 door 95' Accord Ex has stopped rolling up. It would however roll down. I've replaced the widow regulator, still nothing. So I took the master window switch out and cleaned the connections and freed it from the black buildup that could have been preventing a clean connection. All other windows work fine, roll up, roll down, etc. Now my driver window won't roll up or down. :-\ this is very frustrating. Any tips or suggestions welcomed.

You need to verify you have power to the motor going up and down. If you do, replace the motor, if you don't have power find the wiring fault.

Thank you, it might be the wiring because I replaced the motor with the regulator. I had a feeling it might be the wires too as the master switch still works for the other 3 windows

I'd suspect a faulty master switch, the circuits are all separate for the other windows as well as fuses.

Did you check fuse 28 in the underdash fuse box?

I checked all the fuses under the hood but not the dash.. I'll need to look there next. I figured the switch was bad. The thing still has the original stamp of May 28 1995. So all original parts. Just trying to avoid paying $50/60 online or $110 in stores for a new switch if its not needed. I'll let you know if its the fuse under the dash. Thank you

So I checked all the fuses under the dash and found all were in perfect working order. Thinking to myself and reviewing the the fuse map, I didn't see where the fuses were related to my windows. So I popped the hood and checked the fuse box there a second time in case I missed something when I looked before. Sure enough I had one blown 20A fuse for the window. I hurried to Auto zone spent $3.85 and replaced the busted fuse.. Urika!!! My window is officially fixed and working again. No more painters tape, no more blind spot, no more loud rippling of plastic in the wind on my daily commute!! The boyfriend will be so proud! Lol
