Question Help with Window Power Relay

Hello, Folks -
Blew a fuse when re-connecting my window switches on the driver's side of my '78 911sc. Changed the fuse and it blew again - now with a new fuse in it, none of the windows switches are working (though the fuse appears fine). Wondering if it's the window power relay. Can anyone describe where the relay is and what it looks like? I've read on earlier posts that it's behind the dash gauges, but I'm not sure what I'm looking for. The wiring in my car has been modified to the point that it's very difficult trace anything by wire color (rrrrrrrrr!).
Thanks for any guidance,
Doug

Power window relay is on the front trunk fuse box.
Next to the red fuel pump relay.

Thanks, John -
Swapped it with the relay next to it and that solved the problem - guess I just need to get a new one. Too easy. Appreciate the quick reply.
