Swifty's never-ending project thread!

So, now windows don't work, and the power locks dont. I checked the 15A fuse under the dash..it's ok. Checked the "under hood" fuse box..behind my front bumper, and the 30 A WDO fuse is ok. I was doing all this with the key on, not running. I touched all the relays, and the far corner one for the ALT was warm to the touch, compared to the others..why is that? Any ideas on what else the issue could be? Aside from disconnecting the alt power, then running it straight back to the battery through the 80a fuse, and pulling the one out of the fuse box under the hood, what could have changed? Should I have left the fuse plugged in, just unhooked the one side?
