97 Ranger Wipers not working!!!

I have a 97 Ranger 2.3l with problems with the wipers not working. For a while I ran a toggle switch, which gave me wipers at a single speed and let me know the motor wasstill working. Now I want this fixed. I changed out the switch today, and switched around relays to make sure I didn't have a bad one from the distribution box, with no results. I was wondering if anyone else had the same problems and could point me in the right direction.

wipers?

Ok so after reading up on a few forums I pulled the radio and found one of the wire clips were disconnected on the GEM. Plugged it in and now the washers seem to work but the wipers still do not. Any thoughts?
