Gen 3 2001 intermittent wiper issues was created by Mabster

Hello and apologies if this is covered somewhere already (I can’t find anything!) but I’m having intermittent front wiper issues. Normal and fast speed work fine, intermittent is touch and go! Using main beam / indicators can sometimes make it work / stop working. Hitting a bump in road when intermittent selected but not working can make the wiper work. Fiddling with the wiper stalk can make intermittent work sometimes when engaged in that position. Has the relay under the dash failed (dry joints?) or is the wiper stalk connection worn out / dirty? Anyone have a way to diagnose / fix please? There is sometimes a crackly buzzing sound from the steering wheel housing when this is happening. Does that suggest a poor connection? Many thanks in advance.
