old wiper problem...need quick answers.

Hey guy. My rear wiper motor isn't working like every other ZJ out there. So last night I took it apart to clean up the shaft and housing, re-greased it, and hoped it would work. Well, its a no go. I thought it would be a fun and easy project I could do on my own, and now that it didn't work, its bothering me. So BEFORE I give up and either leave it alone and deal or go buy a new motor, i was wondering if anyone else has idea's of what else I can try. I checked the fuse, and its connected up. Is there another connection someone in the jeep for it? I vaguely remember the previous owner mentioning he disconnected the assembly since it didnt work? Not sure on that, but maybe there is a connection i'm missing somewhere. Also, how can I test the motor?

oh, and i followed this write up...http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f13/save-rear-wiper-motor-398760/

Have you grabbed a 12V test light to see if it is getting power at the motor?
If not, it ain't the motor!

Check the fuse, look in your manual for what its tied too, its not labeled on the back of the fuse door.
