Where is the rear wiper RELAY?

I figure its probably under the dash, but the little description diagram only mentions the fuses!!

My rear winshield wiper stopped working. I think its either the fuse or the relay. I believe I checked the right fuse and it was fine. Relay next. I doubt I am having the same electrical gremlins as others as there is no corosion and i have no other problems. They worked untill the other day.

Also, I dont have the user manual. Thanks Town and Country Mitsubishi!
What repair manual should I get? Haynes, Chilton, Helms?

Thanks!

i got mine working again. yey.

my dumb *** accidentally unpluged the small connector right under the rear wiper when i was putting a sub and box in the trunk. The connectors come undone easily. Its in the trunnk right under the wiper. dunno u guys could check that too!

But yeah that corrosion blocks current flow pretty good. Even if u scrape it off, it still causes terrible things!! My old for bronco has massive electrical problems do to corrosion. I have to consitently lay down lengths of wire to replace corroded wire that looks like its still good but really isnt.
