2012 F150 Wiper Issue

On our 2012 F150, with the wiper switch in the off position, it still continues to operate on what seems to be the lowest delay setting. I have tried wiggling the switch, turning the vehicle off, turning the switch all the way on, and working the washer button on the end. None of those methods have changed anything. Anyone else have any experience with this or any idea were to look next? A bad relay perhaps? Or maybe just a bad lever in general?

Thanks!

I suspect the switch is bad and needs to be replaced

On my 2011 F350, I replaced the whole MFS (multi function switch) (the turn/wiper switch) a few years back when my wipers started running by themselves. Was easy to do. Presumably it’s the same with the F150
