Need Help with the Rear Wiper Setup

I've never had this car operational yet. I bought it as a roller / project car so now I'm working on the systems. OK So I have the wiper arm installed on the hatch, it's wired up. As I understand it the timing of the wiper is controlled by CPU 1 & that's as much as I know. The highlights manual shows a picture of a front wiper switch & a rear wiper switch & they're the same looking ?? Is there a different switch with the rear wiper setup? How does it look / function differently? There is no rear washer bottle and the car came with a round plug plastic cap that covers the bottle hole.Any enlightenment on this subject would be much appreciated...thanks

I removed mine but the control is on the right handle behind the steering wheel and coms on by twisting. the fuss controls wiper and a/c and heat controls. If the heat controls work that tells you the power is there. I belive there is a cpu control but know nothing about it. Thats all i know. Good luck.

Great pics thanks. That clears up the switch issue. My switch has a smooth outer end without the square window picture. That must be the rear hatch symbol & switch. So I guess I have to find a switch & go from there to wire it up. Has anyone upgraded from no rear wiper to having one? Is the harness already there? Please say YES!!
