Question 1: what did you guys mean by checking the "relay"? I'm really not good with cars
Question 2: How can I check if the 30 and 40 amp fuses are blown? My power windows are extremely slow so I'm thinking it could be the 30 amp fuse in the engine compartment.
Thanks again!

im not going to get into how a relay works but just think of it as a switch, it looks just like a fuse but a small cube with 4 or 5 pins on the bottom of it it doesnt matter the size of the fuse. if the fuse was blown it would completely cut the circuit off of power so if the windows are slow the fuse isnt the problem, im gessing it could be a bad connection on the ground side of the circuit with mean not all the electricity can get back to ground causing excess resistance and not allowing the motor for the windows to operate as fast, anything that causes resistance in the circuit will reduce the current flowing through it and thus slow the window movement, you could have a corroded wire or just a bad motor that needs replacement. are all the windows slow or just one?
