Whole power window system dead

I know I'm gonna get flamed for this but I need help ASAP. It is about to rain and I can't figure it out. My whole power window system is down and I need to figure out which fuse runs off of it. Anyone who can help it would be appreciated.

Run to the local parts store/auto store, get a 12VDC Test light, with a INCANDECENT BULB.

they cost like $5

Then take the clip end and put it on a good ground, such as the bolts that hold your brake pedal on, the fuses are to your left while driving, by your feet, under a small panel

You will now probe each side of each fuse one at a time, with the key on. If you have power (light bulb lights up) on one side of a fuse but not the other, that's the bad fuse. Change it. I suggest you keep checking even if you do find one blown, just replace it then keep checking to make sure the rest are ok.

There's fuses under the hood by the battery too, check these in the same manner.

If you get stuck, get some garbage bags and duct tape out

I already bagged the window. Is there a fuse that correlates to the power window system. It's not a bad motor b/c it's every window in the car, my drivers side just happened to be open when something blew. I was installing/ working on some custom midrange pods when I accidentally grounded out the speaker wire. Luckily I didn't blow up my amp, but it must have blown a fuse somewhere b/c the windows will not go up and down. I tried turning the key to put them down just incase I burnt out the switch panel somehow. If anyone knows of a fuse that would disable the whole power window system lmk. Ps I checked the fuse panel next to the clutch pedal and the smaller on infront of the battery

You'll want to check them all, everything in our cars is connected. It's VITAL that you don't even change a light bulb int his car without disconencting the battery.

You could have fried your BCM out. Hopefully a fuse caught it, but until you check all the fuses, who knows.

Check the fuses, but is there anything else that isn't working?

No, just the windows. Everything else is fine that I've tested

Sorry it took so long to respond, but it turned out to have nothing to do with fuses. Apparently the molex plug in-between the door wiggled itself just lose enough to cause the windows to loose power. i just re-tightened the connection and it was working fine again.
