My s13 is having wiper issues.. the intermittent wiper setting doesn't work, I can hear my relay click on, but the wiper motor does nothing. all the other ones work fine, but when I turn it off my wipers stop dead, they don't return to park

Also, my sprayer doesn't work at all. I just hear the relay click and then click off (to wipe the spray off)

I figure that my wiper sprayer motor is shot, but I can't figure out why the intermittent setting doesn't work?

I thought it was just the relay but I swapped it out and still the same.

Help?

Sounds like the little control box went bad. Same thing is wrong with my S14. Im just to lazy to replace it.

does your sprayer work? I suspected the stalk was bad at first, but I can hear the relay clicking in the control unit in the engine bay. Its a green box bolted to the engine bay right near the clutch master cylinder.
