If the fuse under the hood is good, then the next step is to check the power window relay. This relay is responsible for providing power to the power window switch, which in turn operates the windows. If the relay is faulty, it could cause the windows to stop working.
Additionally, you may want to check the power window switch itself. Sometimes, the switch can become damaged or worn, which can prevent the windows from working.
Another possible cause for the windows not working could be a problem with the wiring in the door. If the wiring is damaged or shorted, it can cause the windows to stop working.

How do I check the relay for the power windows, I checked my fuses and they were good
Bruce from United States a year ago
@KloverYou can check for continuity using a multimeter between the relay terminals: set your multimeter to the lowest resistance setting (usually symbolized by the Greek letter omega, Ω) and touch the multimeter probes to the coil terminals of the relay. You should see a low resistance reading. If the reading is high or there is no reading at all, the relay is likely faulty.
You can also check for function by applying voltage to the coil terminals, using a 12V power source (such as a car battery or a 12V power supply). You should hear a clicking sound, indicating that the relay is switching. If you don't hear a click, the relay may be faulty.

Auto parts stores sell a selection of fuses that ALSO HAS A TESTER. The mini fuses have little test ports on back, so can be tested w/o removing. Also getting the right fuse panel diagram is helpful.

Power failure

Ford Explorer 1998 Explorer 4x4 4.0 170000 miles
Bought the explorer a week ago. Had to jump start it to move it. Only blinkers and hazards were not working. Got it home and pulled battery to charge, checked fuses, then next day installed battery that was in it. When truck was fired up and running. Found that the power windows, interior overhead lights(dome), stopped working, the 4x4 hi/low range indicator light on dash is blinking+switch on dash will not do anything either, went today for another test drive and when I got back ,shut off engine, battery was dead,no start. Different battery in truck running- volt meter read 13.5. Is there a control module for these items. And do i replace alt due to low output.
