Is there a relay under the dash for the wipers on this car? My intermittents don't work at all, and the lo and high settings stop right where they are when I turn them off. I tried replacing the cover of the wiper motor where some of the switches and connections are, but it made no difference. Before i try to replace the multi function switch I thought I'd check on a relay, but don't know where to look. thanks for any help.

I found and fixed the problem. After locating the relays in the power distribution box under the hood, I discovered that there was a faulty connection at one of the contacts for the wiper park relay. I inserted a piece of wire to make the connection tighter and the problem was solved. If others have this problem, before replacing wiper motors and multifunction switches, give this a try.
