If you're sure it's the switch, you'll have to replace the whole switch module. Some people have had limited success by taking it apart and cleaning it.

However, the majority of window problems on the Buick are actually bad window regulators.

Here's a link that shows how to replace one.

Is there a problem with the fuse if the power windows go out one by one meaning they don't work anymore on a 1993 Mercury Grand Marquis?

If the fuse went out, NONE of the windows would work. I suspect the master switch on the drivers door panel. To confirm this, try the windows using the switch in the door for that window. If the windows work, the problem is the switch on the drivers door. If they don't, you've either got 4 bad motors or some loose wiring. Good luck.

Sounds like a defective switch on the driver's door disconnected wires on either door or you have a lock out switch turned on... with driver door, i suggest pulling your "panel" off and verify your switch is actually connected and if it is, then replace the switch
