Default 1998 suburban power window problems

Pwr windows won't work, checked breaker (ok), no pwr to fuse box. What preceeds the fuse box that I could be losing power?

Do you have a power window relay?

I'm not sure if it has a relay. I haven't gotten a manual yet. Is there anyone that knows and where I might find it if it does?

The realay should be in the fusebox under the hood.

No relay, the wiring diagram shows power into the fuse box but not where it originates from. The fuse was good but I check for power at the fuse spade and no power is going to it. Does anyone know were the power originates from that goes to the fuse box for the power windows?

I checked for the relay in the engine compartment and with all the fuses it has no relay for the power windows. Is it possible that the power goes through the window switch first and then through the fuse?
