Six cylinder two wheel drive automatic 60,000 miles

My rear wiper quit, and the front wipers still work fine. Is there a relay to the rear wiper motor? The fifteen amp fuse in the instrument panel is new and rear wiper still does not work. Or could it be the motor?

I would say your rear wiper is definitely fried. I would replace it.You can always tell by a corrosion buildup around the wiper motor shaft. Also testing the power and ground at the motor is a good way to check. But the motor is a very common failure in these vehicles.
