If you bought the Auto Zone Cardone Reman 40-1063 ($149.99 plus the $15.00 core = $164.99 plus tax = about $175.00 I am guessing) front wiper and module (hope that the rebuild included the sealing of the module) that should take care of the problem of the washer fluid running when it wants to you are having now.
But, your mechanic is going to have to go through the same procedure to get to the motor/module and he could have made the repairs to the one in there and saved you the money for the rebuilt motor and only charged you for his time to take it apart and put it all back together again
Just a thought, good luck and please let us know how it goes for folks who may have the same problem down the road and come here looking for help.

Again, Hummer said my dealer didn't indicate that water damage caused my wiper motor to fail and I was on my own. I bought a wiper motor from Autozone for $175 and am getting my local mechanic to install it for me. When I put the fuses back in for the wiper system, that is when I noticed the problem with the rear washer fluid pump constantly running. I may have put the relay in backwards myself when I previously tried to troubleshoot my previous wiper problems. I'm hoping to get the wiper motor installed, and a new relay and put this problem behind me.
