Default wipers high only

the front wipers on my 91 only work on high, what controls the wipers is a relay or is it the motor, or is it the switch and what the easiest way to test it, it really annoys me, clean the windshield and have to turn them on high

It's the delay module that is mounted around the left kick panel area. It's a little black box with flat electrical plugs at each end. It may even have a label on it that says "wiper delay module".

Un plug module then plug harness ends together make sure low works first. If it does then replace module. Mine low was bad on motor replaced with 97 motor. Also grand cherokee module is little better if needed.
