Wiper washer motor update. This keeps getting better and better...... 200 87

Hello all-

I posted a message a few days ago about my wiper washer motor ceasing to work. Well, turns out that the rear wiper washer works fine but the front does not. I peeped under the hood and a previous individual has clipped the wires to the outside motor, spliced a bunch of wires and put a Y-connecter on the fluid hose. Guess the guy rigged the pump to do double duty.

I know the good motor works, 'cause the rear squirter works. Why aren't the front squirters working if they are running off of the same pump? The wipers do their thing and park themselves, but the motor does not make a sound when pulling back the stalk. (I had my wife do this while I listened under the hood.) There is a relay that is next to the motors attached to the fender. Could this be bad? Looks like an easy replacement. Also, how in the hell do you unplug the wires from the motor with the stupid washer tank on top of it. I cannot for the life of me get my hands down in there. Any tricks? I know they are supposed to slide off and all, but sheesh!! Thanks for the help.
