Wipers won't park

Title says it all... any ideas? I searched around the various forums and found Briano's tip about bending the bottom contact on the switch to get the washer pump going, but it still doesn't trigger the wipers to go on momentarily, although the washer DOES work for the first time now. I have a four position switch, and the intermittent, slow, and slower speeds used to all work. Now, only the slow and slower speeds work and the wipers don't park; I have to shut them off at the right time.

It's a 1982 'vert. Thanks, Thomasx2 and anyone else.. :)

Won't park and no intermittent? Sounds like the intermittent relay isn't working. Either a contact problem (switch issue at the column) or a bad relay.
