does the truck have delay wipers? if it does, the delay module is bad and needs to be replaced.

if it has delay wipers, there will be a rotation to the wiper switch, then it clicks for low and high.
if it does not have delay, it is a 3 position switch, off, low high.

i don't know where the delay module is on a 92. i know on the 87-91 it is on the dash rite behind the switch. but ford changed everything around for the 92's, so it may well be behind the glove box like you say.

If you don't to spend the $$$ on a E9TZ-17C476-A "wiper governor assy" ($120+ IIRC) and don't care about delay, you could just find an old three position switch and connect it into the harness directly.
It is a plug & play swap.

Thank you Bill for that correction.
I guess I did not know the cutoff date for that part.
