[QUOTE=Tuxblacray] [QUOTE=cj5nutz]

The windows are still fused with or with out a relay, the relay is there so when the switch is off, the windows don't work. relays don't stop power overloads, thats what we have fuses and breakers for. A relay is just a fancy word for a switch. It would have the same power going to it regardless, this just allows the key switch to interupt the circuit. By removing the relay, you are just bypassing the keyswitch control.
