Try unplugging the relay and shoving it back in.  Could be the relay but I
would
also try jiggling the wiper control stalk a bit to see if that helps.  You
may have
to repair or replace the wiper control on the steering wheel.   I doubt it's
the motor
as they are fairly robust and it was working fine before...
