No power to my windows

Just had my alternator replaced. After a few times of turning my car on and off my engine light came one. I then realized that my car no longer beeped to warn me my keys were still in the ignition or that my lights were still on. I then noticed none of my power windows works from either of the doors. I tested all fuses, in car and under hood, and all triggered the tester light. What am I dealing with? What happened after he replaced my alternator?

We need to see if there is power at the power window fuse 30 amp under the hood. Here is a guide to help you test for power:

Here is the wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works and the fuse locations and identification. (fuse #21 under the spinner)

Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what happens.

Cheers, Ken
