Default Power windows

Hello all!! New to the form as I'm new to Honda. Bought a used 01 to have as a work car. Obviously used cars comes with issues. Thankfully this one is minor. Only the driver side window rolls down. The other 3 windows won't roll down from the drivers seat OR the doors. So at first I wasn't hearing anything when I pressed the buttons. Checked the fuse for the other windows, they were blown. Swapped them out and thought nice easy fix right.. press the window button.. I heard something like maybe it wants to roll down but then the fuse blew again.. any ideas? Thanks!

Sounds like you may have a bad regulator, or possibly a damaged mechanism.

What specific fuse(s) is/are blowing?

There is probably a short in the circuit. Generally, a short is an accidental touching/connection of a wire to ground or to another wire; can also be due to short in a component's metal contacts.

It's the 20 Amp fuse that blew. well two were blown I replaced both and only 1 blew right as I pressed the window button.. the other didn't blow and I hear a soft noise in the door panel like it might want to work..
