The intermittent wipers sometimes continue to run even when switched off on 1999 Saturn SL 2. I didn't find the relay in the fuse box or under the hood in the other relay box. Does anyone know how to fix the intermittent wipers? Thanks!!!

It is located on the fuse panel on the Passenger side.
Look for the removable panel that is located below the radio/center bezel on the right side (passenger side). It's not part of the center shifter console, but just forward of it. Remove the panel marked "Fuses"! You will find the Wiper Fuse in this panel along with the fuses for the Radio, Accessory Power Plug/Lighter, Power Door Lock & Window Relays, Fuel Pump Relay, Cruise Control fuse, exc......
Hope this info helps!
well if you look on www.youtube.com there is a nice guy who has some saturn repair videos. one of them is how to troubleshoot the wiper switch, part of the multifunction device under the steering wheel. this is done from the wiper motor connections so you are going to have to pull the wiper motor out to get at the connections. while you have it out replace it in case it turns out the switch is good. your problem it is one of the two parts and saturns had a long history of short lived wiper motors.
Tale off the fuse box cover under the hood, and look for the heavy wire on the side closest to the steering wheel, with a bolt/nut on the end connecting it to the fuse box assembly. AFTER DISCONNECTING the battery, take off the bolt and remove the wire. There should be a flat washer about one-inch across on the end of the wire. Thoroughly clean off any corrosion on the bottom of this washer with heavy sandpaper, and also clean off the plate the washer makes contact with on the fuse box assembly. Clean off any sand, replace the washer and and tighten the bolt firmly. Reconnect the battery.
Corrosion on this washer/plate causes a poor electrical connection which shuts off power to everything, sometimes for a fraction of a second, sometimes for longer. It can vary based on temperature and humidity, and gets worse once it starts.
