If the switch works at all, then the switch is fine; it either works or it doesn't. What you are describing, it sounds like your wiper control module. It's a little black box tucked up underneath the steering wheel, stuck to the knee guard by velcro. Pull the connector out and clean it really good. Also, it wouldn;t hurt to crack the box open, to see if the electronics are good... maybe clean it.

Year? Always and forever... they are not all the same for this or any other issue.
