Windshield Wiper Problems
Hello,
I have a '93 Cherokee XJ and I'm having some problems with the windshield wipers. They work on intermittent and low settings. When you switch to high, you only get low speed. Also the switch for the windshield sprayer doesn't work either. I've tried a replacement intermittent wiper module, but that didn't fix the problem. They do return to normal position when you turn them off, and occasionally you hear a clicking sound at the initiation of the wiper on intermittent settings. Maybe it's the motor? Any thoughts?
Thanks.

I tried that after I swapped out the delay module. I still only get one speed, low, whether it's on high or low setting on the multifunction switch. I suspect the motor, but was wondering if others have this issue.

So I back probed all the connections both under the dash and at the wiper motor connection and I am getting normal battery voltage on both the high and low settings. However when you switch between the two, the motor doesn't change speed. At this point I am guessing it's the motor and am looking to replace it.
