1998 4.0 auto...

Now here is the issue, when I hit the button on the dash for the rear wiper, it locks and unlocks the doors.

Does anyone have a clue where I should even begin to start looking?

Thanks in advance!
Marty

Sounds like you have a short somewhere. I am not too sure where the wires for the wiper and the wires for the locks cross paths but that's probably where your issue is. I would start tracing wires.
