By looking at a blade fuse as you have it's usually evident if it's blown by visual inspection but swap for another known fuse temporarily of the same rating to be certain. The contacts can cause problems in the fuse boxes with these older cars (Corrosion) Check you have +12V at one of the terminals WITH the ignition on, if thats good you need to be looking toward the motor itself, make sure the earth is good, I.E not corroded then I would put +12V directly to it, if it works then then it's a wiring/switch problem.
