windshield wipers dont work in 98 Civic LX
I left the lights on when I was at class and the battery obviously got drained. I got a jump and the the wipers stopped working.
so it seems like a fuse issue but where is the fuse that controls the wipers?
I dont have the sheet that tells you what fuse is for what circuit, and i dont think its located in the engine fuse box.
also could the wiper motor have busted up? I mean everything was fine in the morning then I got a jump and no wipers at all and its raining for the next few days.
I was driving semi blind with rainX but thats only helpful in decent speeds.
how hard of a job is it to swap motors if thats the problem?
I turn the wipers on and I hear a buzzing noise but no action.

I checked all the fuses in the cabin and they all seem fine.
i even confirmed the right fuse from the manual and its number 26 20 amps.
i replaced that and still the same issue.
the motor hums but doesnt work when I switch it on.
