This happened to my 87 last year. The cause was water entry at the wiper motor. I had just replaced the wiper motor (typical bad ground) and a week later a heavy rainstorm killed the relay. Mine was hanging loose on the harness- the water ran right down it into the upside down relay. Filled it completely and burnt it all up. Not saveable. If yours is not corroded too much, you could probably save it, but you might want to get a spare just in case. Costs less than a tow, that's the way I look at it.
