Default Accord 2003 wiring troubleshoot

My 2003 2dr accord ex has lost power to the top row of fuses inside the car. The passenger window got stuck and i tried to move it by jumpering ther motor directly from the harness which probably caused it because before this everthing was working. It affects the instrument panel display (speedometer etc) and power windows only (not poweer locks). Also the shift stick (auto)will not move since this happened and the ac compressor switch stopped workinhg. They all seem to be on the same circuit. . Can anyone tell me which power relay under the hood serves this circuit or show me a copy of the wiring. thanks

I'm assuming it's a 4-cylinder. You didn't say. It's probably the same for a V6.

BTW, DON'T DO THAT!

You are awesome man. It did take care of all the issues. It is a 4 cyl.

Coming back to how it all happened. I replaced both widow regulaators and tracks after constantly having it fixed. They have been working fine for a month till today. The passenger window went down and comes up about a 1/4 inch and stops, that is when I had jumped the harness thinking it was the switch any ideas of how to get the glass going up again.

Does the window seem like it is binding or just losing power and stopping during that 1/4 inch?

If it is an electrical problem, you can jumper the window up IF you know what wires to jumper.

At the passenger door switch:

black wire is a ground (make sure ground is present)
green/black stripe is 12v (make sure battery voltage is present)
red and red/blue stripe wires go to motor

The other wires go back to the door multiplex inside the drivers switch and will blow fuses/fry the door multiplex if jumpered to, that is what you did last time. Don't do that, lol.

Send power and ground to the motor wires. It will move if the motor and regulator are ok. If it moves in the wrong direction, swap the wires around the other way. If it doesn't move, you have motor/regulator problems.

Btw, fuse 26 (20A) under the dash sends power to the RF window switch (the green/black stripe wire you need to jump to)

I just realized you have a 2-door. You could have a bad drivers door switch, power window relay, passenger window switch, fuse 26, regulator/motor, nearly anything in the system since we don't have working rear windows eliminating several areas of the circuit.

The moving and stopping part still makes me think it is either binding physically or the drivers switch/door multiplex is bad.
