1 week ago the wipers and blower motor quit. Had voltage at motor connections for both. Replaced both motors.($200+). This morning both quit again!! Is there some sort of connection, relay,etc. that controls both of these??

There is a large relay mounted to the firewall near the resistor card of the blower. The plug(connector) was somehow letting voltage leak onto the ground wire. Not enough to blow a fuse, but enough to light a tester. very intermittent. ground would light tester(sometimes)(sometimes not). replaced connector and relay and everythings fine(for now).
Thanks anyhow!!

recheck that. sorry i missed you the first time around. your problem is a bad or missing ground. a weak ground will show voltage. trace that ground wire and im sure you will find the problem. let me know
