Default Power Windows AGAIN!!!

Hi Folks,
As per usual, it's very hot out, so my windows won't go down. I think you know what they do when it's freezing out. First the pass side now the driver (LHD). I cannot locate the window relay or the thermal cutout. I can find the ignition load relay, something I have suspected giving problems before, because on several occasions I could cycle the ignition on/off, and the windows would come back to life. Not this time. My diagram says pink/white, brown/blue (2) and black for the window relay. I've looked everywhere. Any tips?
Thanks,
Seann

OK, dropped the dash after comment "farther to right" (for looking for relay/cutout) and found the thermal cutout. Plugged in a 20 amp fuse in it's place and the driver window works. Also found the spring clip for the original "round" relay...this one has been replace with a square unit. Tried switching the blue/brown wires (left to right?) but no change still just driver side operating. Window switches are both new.
