Mini cooper50 windshield wiper turned on & won't stop

I tried using the rear cigarette light, since I already had my trunk open I decided to use it, to inflate my tire. The moment I turned it on you can tell something went wrong. Both my front & rear windshield wiper turned on after that & won't turned off, I checked all the fuses & non are blown, I took of the fuse for the front to make it stop for now but can't locate the one for the rear, also trying to see how to fix the problem

The wiper motors are controlled by the "general module." It sounds like your inflator may have caused a voltage dip that made the module go haywire.
I would scan the module for errors to see what it thinks. At a bare minimum, you can try disconnecting the battery for 20 min or so to see if it resets.

BTW, fuse #17 in the driver's footwell should feed the rear motor.
