Perhaps it's not likely but if you have an intermittent ground causing the problem you might check the insulation on the wire bundle coming through the firewall near the shift linkage. I'd bet the wires for the wiper are in there. The tranny problem I had drove me nuts for a while before I thought to trace the wires.

As I said, not likely but if you are otherwise stumped it can't hurt to check this and/or trace out other wiper wires.
Raylo;
I appreciate you taking your time to try to help. When I replaced the wiper motor Assy (not just the motor) 2 years ago I noticed some firewall grommets were missing so I replaced them all. At the same time I rewrapped any portion of the harness that looked even slightly damaged. Then I covered all wiring in the engine compartment with flexible plactic tubing - so I know all of that is OK
