Usually the wiper motor is protected by an internal circuit breaker, not a fuse in the fuse box. Try tapping the motor with the handle end of a large screwdriver. There's also a park relay in the motor that if it's sticking will cause the wipers to keep running, even with the switch off. Hope that helps! Jim
