Sounds like your front wiper motor is on its last legs mate.

Had the same kinda problem with mine, started behaving erratically and stopped mid-wipe....then would work some settings and not others.
Then stopped working altogether!
Trying to drive in heavy rain with no wipers is not much fun i can tell you!

Take it to a garage you trust and ask them to take a look at the motor...im sure they have some sort of volt meter or something they can use to check its condition....think thats what they did with mine.

Cost me

I doubt very m,uch its the motor, I would pull the plug off the top of the motor and chech the condition of the terminals, I bet you will find some green furr, clean it and give it a good wiggle as you clip it back together Smile

This happened to mine, i unplugged it and noticed there was a bit of a green colour on one of the pins, i cleaned that off and they worked fine after that
