Default no power windows or top? help!!

hey, hopin someone can point me in the right direction, last night, all of a sudden as far as i know none of my windows worked, except the drivers door. but now i've swapped a couple relays and stuff, and now none work, and neither does the convertable top. is there fuses anywhere besides the left end of the dash and under hood?

Sounds like you've got a bad/sticky relay... Or even a loose connector...

it would be the one under the hood then i guess right? theres a convert fuse on the end of the dash, (20a) but its good, and then all that under the hood, but i took the relay with the same numbers from the brights and put it where the windows relay is suppposed to be and it did nothing. am i looking in the wrong spot?

ok go into the trunk and the drivers side taillight pull down the carpet there is a switch there where the bolts to the taillight is and the switch is Auto\Manual for your power to your top that also may be a part of the window trouble but maybe not. the problem may be more than being that easy though but try that first

you checked all the fuses? what did you do that caused the one window that was working to stop working now? and was the switch in auto or manual when you checked that out?

it only said manual, but its a rocker switch and if auto was written on it, it would be that side that was pushed down, so i assume thats ok, i put it to manual and tried it and it seems to be normal.. im not sure what i did to stop the driver window from workin.. the old guy came out and ran a wire from 1 terminal to the other under the windows relay, and the drivers window worked.. but if i put a relay from say the lights, with the same numbers on it in there, nothing now.. same with the old relay, doesnt do anything. i assume the little button above the window controls on the driverside should be pushed down (window lock or something) i always try it both ways, but im pretty sure it was down)

the button pushed in locks the window it will lock except the drivers window. when you hit the button for the top does the motor for the roof make any sounds at all like it trys to move?
