On the right side of the wiper motor you can see a small "relay" or electrical part, two red wires connected. What is its name please, Thanks in advance.

Hi mft,

You didn't say what year but on my 1974 it is called a power window circuit breaker.

Hi Paul,
I believe you're right it's a circuit breaker, not a relay!

Yes on the firewall. And apparently the same part 1968 through 1974.
