ok... i've been playing around with it some more....  the fuse only blows when i use the left power window switch GOING DOWN.........  not up.  an i noticed something weird.  When i press the up switch, on either window, i can hear the clicking sound from the relays near my alarm brain and window module.  But on the down part, of either window, i only hear the clicking on the left swtich, which is the switch that blows my fuse.  OK, now the fuse will only blow if i press my dpdt momentary rocker switch halfway down.  I mean..... as long as i fully depress the switch, the fuse doesnt blow....  only when i kind of hold it in the middle of on-off posistion. 

I hope that tells you guys something, and u can help me with my problem!  Could it be a bad relay or a bad switch??  my window modules still work correctly.  let me know, thanks!

you need to ditch the window mod and get a dei 530T, controls 2 windows in both directions, all internal relays, i've installed many of these, they work great.

Hi ogb1, it's possible you may have a bad switch if only one switch causes it to blow sometimes and all works fine otherwise, including the window module, but I'd start fresh and if the output of the switches to each motor rest at ground (most aftermarket switches do), you will not need to add relays for your window module. BTW, what switches are you using?  

Here's a typical window module diagram. https://www.the12volt.com/carsecurity/page6.asp#wm The only differences between yours and the one shown, besides controlling more than two windows in one direction, may be wire colors and type of activation lead, otherwise the connections to the switches and motors will be the same if the motor leads rest at ground through the switch. Also, I'd still use a relay energized by the ignition to provide power from the battery to the switches. 

If you don't get it figured out or if you need anything else, let us know.
