Wiper Control Module
I am original owner of a 1986 E350 Club Wagon with 165,000 miles on it. Over past couple of years intermittent wiper operation has been unreliable. Low and high speed has been OK. Recently, intermittent quit completely. My go to shop said the control module was dead and they could not find a replacement. I am wondering if there are any options such as finding a switch that only has one intermittent speed. From some other posts I have read, it seems that the control module affects low and high speed wiper operation as well so if mine is dead or dying it makes sense to find a way to eliminate it.

If a new module isn't available you could revert to an early year electrical schematic without the wiper delay system to see how it was wired. Not sure if the motor would be compatible with the earlier circuit but that's one way to go about eliminating that control module completely.
I'd personally spend some internet time searching for a new unsold module somewhere here in the USA. User NumberDummy here on FTE has older part numbers and has been amazing helping others locate supposedly obsolete parts that remain on dealer's shelves.

No such thing.

No such thing.
