Where is the windshield wiper relay located on the BMW 5 Series?

Model: BMW Serie 5 E61, E60 - Years 2003-2010
Part: Fuse box

The windshield wiper relay for the BMW 5 Series is located inside the designated box in the engine compartment: to access the box, open the hood and locate it immediately under the windshield on the driver's side. Once the box is open, you can disconnect the windshield wiper relay, allowing you to insert a new replacement with the same amperage. After the new relay is installed, close the box with the corresponding cover, ensuring that the windshield wipers operate correctly.
