Electrical problem
1994 Ford Tempo 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

None of the windows are working in my Tempo, the fuse is good & I replaced the circuit breaker just in case but still nothing. I have no power at the switch & I would like to know where the power window relay is located.

there should be nothing in between fuse box and switch. if power at breaker fuse but no power at switch, maybe wires damaged in door jamb? also do a search of this tempo forum for power windows.

I'm not sure if this proper to reply to my own question but I just thought I would let every one know what I came up with.
I did find the relay, it was a green relay located by the fuse panel, & as it turned out it was the relay that was bad. What I actually ended up doing was tapping on the relay with a 1/4" extension & the windows started working. Needless to say I will be picking up a new relay.
