Default Rear wiper problems

01 XJ Sport.

So this past summer I got my cherokee a little wet, as in water almost to the AC controls. I haves aged to get everything back to normal except for the airbag light and the rear wiper/sprayer.

Does anyone have a schematic that shows the wiring for the rear wiper? I need to find out if I have a motor, switch, relay, or fuse problem. Without being able to pin stuff out I'm afraid I'm going to have to resort to replacing parts until it works and we all know that gets expensive.

I want all the stuff to work, and it has come in handy a few times.

Good drivers look behind themselves frequently.

My rear wiper stopped working, and made the most horrible buzzing/motor noise ever. It just wouldn't stop to the point where I had to pull the fuse for it to stop. How difficult is it to remove the rear wiper motor? I do like having it for when it snows, it definitely helps a lot.
