it seemed to me like the CTM sent a one second dc pulse to the wiper relay in the pdc, which in turn made a tick (on) and then a tock (off) sound, as it opened and closed the relay. this in turn kicked on the wiper motor for a second, and the park circuit on the wiper motor brought the wiper arms back down to the home position.

all i can suggest is trace your electrical signals with a voltage meter, including the signals to the CTM from the wiper switch on the column. i've got that all documented up in those other posts.
