Strange intermittent windshield wiper issue

I have a 2008 F250 that is experiencing an unusual issue with the wipers. When switch is turned on, wipers will operate for less than a second, then stop. I have to turn the switch off, and wait for a minute. Trying the switch after a minute will operate the wipers for less than a second again. If I do not wait for a minute or so, the wipers do nothing. I've replaced the multifunction stalk hoping that would fix it, but I still am having this issue. Before I replace the wiper motor, does anybody know of anything else I can check? TIA!

Check the wiper blades themselves and wiring connections to wiper motor.
