Afaik, they don't have one, the power to the switches comes from ignition source, that was how it was on mine, found no relay, had a good look, as converted all mine to one touch.

I could dig you one at sunday, but I am 99% sure it comes from ignition switch itself.

As said theres no relay just straight fused power supply, are all windows faulty?

It could be the regulator if its just one window.
