I wake up this morning and when I turned my car on my rear windshield wiper wouldn't stop even when I tried different settings, and turned it in the off position all together, even when the car was off it kept going. I tried to reconnect the battery thinking it was a glitch but it didn't work. Then I thought about a blown fuse but when I located the fuse panel I can't find the windshield wiper fuses anywhere. Any help?

Hi, thanks for your help but a friend found the problem. Three wires had broken off the rear wiper motor, I soldered them back on when I had found the correct positions for them and it’s back working
Thanks to all parties who contributed to my problem.
Yours,
Gazbo
