Just replacing parts isn't the way to find the problem , viewing wiring diagrams an testing the electrical circuit with a DVOM - digital volt ohmmeter is . There are no relays involved . Do yourself a favor an take it to a qualified repair shop before you buy more parts that are not needed .
Is the attached photo the style of fuse box you have? The amp rating should be marked at one end of the fuse slot, (yellow circle). I think the wipers run on a 20A fuse.
Windshield wiper motors are generally easy to replace. You need to remove the windshield wipers and take off the small grill panel above the hood and under the windshield. You should see the motor in there. It simply unbolts and unplug the electrical connector and replace it with a new one.
I am having the same issue with my 2003 bonneville. Changed out the control switch, no difference. Changed out wiper motor, still no difference. Seems that the problem may be on the wire for the delay. There is a constand 2.5 voltage when the switch is in the off position, cause the wipers to run intermitently. The wipers will run more often if you rev the car engine and increase the trace voltage. A wire is going to be added to bypass the bad wire in the harness. Crossing my fingers, hope this works.
You can usually avoid that by using a good quality winter mix washer fluid that resists freezing, making sure the wipers are cleared of ice before beginning the drive and using the defroster to keep the windshield warm. In extreme conditions you just need to pull over and manually clean the ice off by hand.(only do that where it's safe). There are also specially designed wiper blades that will also help a bit.
