My (new to me) 99 4x4 4.0L 5-Speed Manual has a front wiper problem. The low and high speed and washer part all works, but the intermittent and "park" functions do not work. I replaced the switch on the steering column with a new one ($ouch) and no change.

I've tried to find the "circuit breaker in the junction block" but not sure which one that is (#30?) but assume it's OK since the low and high speed work; I doubt it's that.

My last recourse - buy a new wiper motor assembly with pivots for $220. Do you folks concur or any other ideas?
Thanks
Nick

There may be a wiper module that is causing the problem. It may be behind the driver side kick panel. . Good idea to replace the link bushings too.
