Still here... sorta...
It's connected to the washer reservoir which is located in the fender well in front of your driver's side front wheel. Remove the fender well lining and you will see it connected to the base of the reservoir. It's easy to spot because it has a wiring plug connected to it. I don't remember how it detaches from the reservoir so check it out before yanking on it. Expect to dump the fluid becuase the motor is kind of a plug for the base of the reservoir.

Uhhhh, does he mean the motor that pumps the wiper fluid (that sprays the window) or the motor that runs the wiper itself?
The wiper motor itself is under the engine cowl cover. Remove the wipers, remove the cowl cover (remove a bunch of clips), and the motor & linkages will be exposed. 4 bolts removes both the motor and linkage, but both these items disconnect from each other at the motor itself.
Oh, and what do you mean by "center the wiper"? The right wiper will always move past the 90 degree straight-up position.
