It depends entirely on the vehicle manufacturer, year and model. Your best information would be in a shop manual of some kind or perhaps you could go to the dealer for that information.
It controls the intermittent wipers

The intermittent wiper relay is helpful when only a light rain or mist is present. It causes the wiper motor to only operate once every few seconds.
Its in the boot.
can you tell me where the relays for the intermittent wiper on a corsa 2006 sxi
It's in the fuse box on the left drivers leg, under the dash area.
This is complicated. the multifuntion switch sends signal to the body computer, the body computer controls the wiper relay. so yes the relay is turned on and off by the body computer. most likely failure is the multifunction switch. as there is no way to easly check this without having a scan tool to see if the body comuper "see" the correct signal from the switch. hope this helps GL
Behind a panel next to the right of the glove box.
There are actually 3 relays on the 03 accord for the wiper system. Washer motor relay, Intermittent wiper relay, and windshield wiper High relay. The manual shows them to be located in the relay control module. There is two locations for relays in this accord with the first in the same location as the fuse box (above) it hidden behind the kick panel. There is another relay box under the hood close to battery. I do not know which box has the relays for the wipers, I will post back when I learn more.
The wiper relay sorts out the intermittent wipe and the parking of the wipers it's blue 6 pin it's right hand side of fuse box behind glovebox :)
The relay that controls the rear windshield wipers is typically called the "rear wiper relay." It is part of the vehicle's electrical system and is responsible for supplying power to the rear wiper motor when the rear wiper switch is activated. In some vehicles, this function may be integrated into the body control module (BCM) rather than a separate relay. Always consult the vehicle's owner's manual or service guide for specific details regarding the relay location and function.
The wiper relay is behind the fuse box which is under the dash to the left of the driver side, its huge. also the flasher is down their and some other relays are their as well
