Help with rear wiper motor

Anyone know if it’s possible or if there’s a wiring diagram on how to make the 88 rear wiper motor (left) work with my 92? (Right). As far as I can tell the Motors are the Same, but the wiring is different. The relay for the 88 is built into the wiring harness but for the 92 it’s on the motor. I don’t mind cutting and splicing some wires, I just need to know where they go

Why not just move the relay to the 88 motor? All you need is to resolder 2 terminals. Are you sure the problem isn't the relay itself?

Yeah that’s what I want to do but I didn’t know which wires went where since they’re different colors. But I hadn’t even considered the relay being bad. Good idea I’ll check that
