Windscreen wipers not working properly


Thanks in advance.

The windscreen wipers issue was coming on gradually.
Its working intermittently even when its completely OFF which is very bizarre.
I was thinking maybe its a loose contact points on the steering arm
or some say its the motor, but it still works albeit occasionally and when I select max speed it does go to max speed and then it stops. And when it does stop it stops at all random places.
Another suggestions was that motor is gone because water gets inside that black box or that contacts inside that black box are all corroded which again could be the problem.

I tried looking for some solutions within this forum and I could find any but if there is a post regarding this issue if you could pls point me to it.

Thanks

Easiest thing to do first is to go to a wrecking yard and get a second-hand wiper control and fit that to see if the problem disappears. It will be cheaper than a replacement wiper motor.

It is the arm on the steering column which switches the wipers on/off/speed

I got it fixed.

In the end it was motor, it had bit of water inside and conductors inside have corroded.

I took few photos, but its been a while since I posted a photo and I am not sure anymore how to do it.
