Maybe clean the control in the stalk. Take a very small flat blade scewdriver and you can pop the square end off the stalk. Hose the inside with Deoxit, there is no other contact cleaner worth using, get it at RadioSchmuck. Yes it's expensive but you actually want it to work right?
Wait an hour for it to dry, replace the cap and give it a shot.

Today, in interval mode, they stopped and I could hear a buzzing sound. When I switched to higher speed the sound went away but the wipers remained inoperable. After a minute or two, they sprang back to life. Interestingly, the rear wiper also ceased operating during the outage. I went to the store, came out a few minutes later, and turned on the wipers. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. Front or rear. Now I am totally scre*ed. Of course, the next 4 days are supposed to be rainy after 3 weeks of drought. Any ideas? Is there a wiper relay? Where is it?
