it sounds like a lazy wiper motor & by trying to work its drawing more current, this in turn puts too much load on the relay, have you tried taking the wiper arm off & seeing if the motor runs o,k then?, if it does then perhaps the motor could do with some switch cleaner spraying in it & left to run for a while[i prefer a cleaner with lubricant], failing that a new motor sounds favourite.
