My motor works fine when the switch is pushed up past the intermitten wipe
position. In fact  the only way to get the thing back down is to push the 
switch one notch past the intermitten position and then off when the wipers
are down.  

I don't have a copy of the Bentley, is there a connection made to the
motor in the off position? ie. some kind of return function on the
motor

Another problem is if I turn my wipers off when they are working in normal wipe
mode (one notch past the intermitten) the motor stops in whatever position 
the wiper arm was in when the switch is turned off.

Anyone else have any ideas??
