power window relay

[drduckster]

long story short, backed my 76 out of my basement since it was a nice day , l let down the windows to let it air out. after about 4 hours, I started it up to put it back inside, neither window would go up. I checked the 30 amp breaker in the fuse box, it is ok. the middle wire going to the relay, is hot, I assume the outside wires are left and right windows. When hooked up I have no power at the switches, which leads me to believe, it must be the relay. I have not be able to find a vendor to get a new one, checked Mid-America, Corvette Central, local body man, ( he gets old parts from a dealer), and NAPA (his parts are limited to Echlin?). Am I on the right track? and if so where can I get one? I have one more vendor to check, he loves old Vettes and carries a lot of parts that most do not keep in stock.

Try the 10 or 20 amp fuse under the dash. I think it is labeled Instruments or Gauges. Mine blew and the gauges went funny, the generator light came on and the windows quit working.

Doc Rebuild has the power window relay - his #1077746, $31.10.
