Once you have access to the power window switch, measure between pins 7 (light blue) and 8 (white) of the power window switch. You should find 12V positive/negative when you move it in the two directions. If not, then the switch is bad. If so then the motor should see the voltage as well across its two pins. If it does, and the motor doesn't respond, then the motor is bad. If it doesn't then the wires from the switch to the motor hava an 'open' situation.

PS Sorry for the delay but as I was sorting through the manuals I found an error in the section describing the connections of the switch which I had to sort out. It appears that a change in the wiring pin assignment of the switch occured between '94 and '98, but the manuals carried forward with the old '94 instructions through '04! I wonder how much hassle that has caused.
