my power window relay fuse gets hot then goes out but when i pull it out and
put it back in it works and then just ends up getting hot again

I would think the power window motor is drawing too many amps, too much power because it is seizing up and burning out. If it does it on only one window then that's the one ready to fail. These relays act like a breaker and can reset after cooling down.
