Windshield Wiper Issue

Well my wiper had this annoying issue with not turning off when switched off. They would eventually turn off when they felt like it. I also could not controll the speed of the wipers. I took off the end cap on the MFS stalk and cleaned an regreased. Seemed to have fixed the issue. Its now 2 months later and the same issue is back, but I can control the speed of the wipers. This leads me to believe cleaning the contacts in the end only fixed the speed issue. What else could cause me to have no control over stopping the wipers?

Your wipers actually work? Stop complaining! LOL!

Mine move correctly but don't actually do anything. I'm not sure if I need to go bend up the arms manually or what...
