Rear wiper - wiring?

Anyone have a wiring schematic relating to the rear wiper?

Alternatively, just the information on where I can find things to check:
- is there a timer control module somewhere?
- where is the relay for the rear wiper (if there is one)?

As you may have guessed, wiper has stopped working. Rear wash is OK though. :?

Have you checked the fusebox ? Assuming it's OK I would first have a look at the wiring beneath the rubber grommets on each side between the tailgate & the body. None of my tailgate electrics are working at the moment because about 6 of these wires are broken. Quite a common fault I believe where the tailgate is constantly opened & closed.

Thanks for the response Pete: as you suggested it was a broken wire inside the tailgate grommet.

And for anyone interested the rear wiper relay is under the back seat! :o
