Which fuse is that? Here's some posts about Fuse 44:

... the radio/wipers go dead... radio and the wipers share #44... fuse 44 had blown again...

... to the dealer this morning. They found the short in the switch on the steering wheel column for the wipers!!!

... wiper motor... keep blowing fuses. Motor was working fine then all of sudden it started blowing fuses. I have read that there is a micro switch inside the motor that seems to go bad... Is there a wiper control module and if so, where is it located?

Wiper motor switch mentioned in #2 in here:

Control unit for wiper washer in eBay:

And from ECST:

Located behind glovebox, but is called a relay in the attached instructions. I wonder if either the switch or the module can short the fuses.
