Upon thinking about this some more I realize that if the window switches are disconnected and the fuse still blows it cannot be the motors as they would be disconnected from the circuit thereby eliminating the motors. The switches are merely a reversing type of switch reversing the polarity of the motors and when the switches are at rest position there is no connection to the motors. Given that logic it would be correct to look elsewhere for the problem...Barry is correct in his application of the light as tracking down shorts (vs. open) is difficult and the only way to do it is to eliminate all things in the circuit one at a time till the short does not occur.
