There is a intermitten wiper relay under the dash. This relay is probably your problem. If you have a wiring diagram it is section 7 relay K3,at least it is on my diagram!

Mike,
Intermittent wiper relay located on a left side firewall under the dash
Black plastic box with six-pin connector mounted with two screws..
If you G equipped with a rear wiper you suppose to have two of these units and can use the rear one as a tester.
We always have one or two in stock,

Vlad

Mike,
For the time you ask all these questions on both forums you can already order, receive and enjoy new wiper module.

Vlad
