Sounds good to me. I asked, because I have seen fuses that looked
good, but were still open.
The next step would be to look for 12 volts at the plug that goes into
the motor. It should be accessible under the cowling below the
windshield. You will need to take the wipers off first, then I THINK
the cowling just snaps out..
Or, you could find and replace the relay.
I looked on the FAQ maintained by Tegger and did not see anything that
exactly matched your symptom. The FAQ does mention an integrated
control unit that causes odd symptoms.

Can you hear the motor running when you turn the wiper switch on?

The relay is in the fuse/relay box under the hood, a little in front of the
drivers side wiper. After finding that good, if the washer also doesn't
work, you might want to check the switch (and it's connections) before
checking the motor, especially if there is no sound at all coming from the
motor when you try it.

Re: No wipers on Accord 2003
Hi,
There is no sound at all, I've spotted the fuse box under the hood, there is
a index of the fuses, but not the relays, there are 4 -5 relays in there, I
have no idea which it is...
The washer works!!!
Thanks to all.
