bummer I was hoping it was blown...... I dont know enought to tell you what to check next... but sounds like you will need a test light and wiring diagram.....
Ok open your hood then stand on the drivers side by tire you see battery ..right next to that is a long black box take the lid off.. there is a snap clip on the end of it near the engine... now you will see buch of stuf the fuse CLOSEST to the fender and CLOSEST to the battery... pull it...
