Default Wiper control module on 98 cherokee

This is a continuation to a post from a couple weeks ago.
Am I missing something cause I did not think the 98 has a wiper control module under the dash...seems like I saw it was controlled from the BCM...or am I just whistling dixie out my butt.
My wipers keep quitting on me...and it is getting more than annoying it is dangerous.
I know I had to remove the wiper control module in my 89 COmanche and just plugged the two harness that went into the module into each other and it worked fine...although no intermittent wipers.
So...is there the same stupid POS module in my 98 or not...cause I can't find one and as I said..I read they are controlled in the BCM....unless I read something for a newer year model.

Well I don't have one there...now I am asking if you kinow for sure there is one on a 1998.
The diagram shows it going ONLY to the BCM and the BCM on a 1998 I think is way up on the firewall.
I am not being a jerk to you so please bear with me but are you sure there is one on a 1998 because they are not listed on any schematic I find.

There is no wiper conrol module from 1997 on it appears. looks like just the BCM and a circuit breaker and the wiper switch on the column...and the motor best i can tell.
Well this sucks....
