2012 ford escape rear window wiper motor trouble shooting

I replaced the rear motor with a new motor , and the control on the steering column , approximately 200 dollars in parts , I also got out the owners manual and checked the fuse diagrams, in my car it was fuse number 19 ,located in the passenger center console low to the floor, I replaced both because ,one of them caused the fuse to blow. I recommend check the fuses first . My motor was worn out , but like anything else , in electronics you never know.Especially in an automobile.
