4.5 firewall fuses

I need to know which "fuses" go to what underneath the hood. These are the big metal squares and cylinders right next to the firewall.
Thanks
Tim

The fuses are inside the plastic boxes. You're talking about the relays, I believe. There are 4 boxes, if memory serves, one of which has a screw-on top (for the radio).

You are talking about the fuses inside the black plastic boxes. I need to know which ones of those go to what and what the silver cylinder plugs go to.
Thanks
Tim

The silver cylinders and square that I was referring to are filled with little metal plugs. I guess they are like connection points or something. I just need to know what all of them go to and which of the fuses in there goes to the windows. I know it is the fuse that is bad because I was in there, cleaning the silver connection points so that my radio would hopefully work. Well I got the radio to work, but then none of my windows did anything. They are not getting any electricity at all. I looked at the fuse chart for the fuses underneath the steering wheel, but none of them seemed to have anything to do with the windows.
Thanks
Tim

The 4 black square boxes on the firewall are the remote fuse boxes. As stated earl;ier the one with the screw is for the radio, that one should be closest to center IIRC. The next one to the right should be for the A/C, the two furthest right should be for the windows, The fuse box map under the dash has no info on the window lift fuses.
