Hi guys, wipers only working on low speed. Continues to work in all 'on' positions but only snail speed. Any ideas? Fuse/relay/magic? Tia
Now:
'84 GTV
'12 Nissan Navara D22

Then:
'83 Giulietta ('01-'06)

Alfapride

Most likely the relay module needs refurbishing

Alfa 116 Giulietta

mine have always been like that - thought it was normal ;D.
Now:    2002 156 GTA
            1981 GTV
Before: 1999 156 V6 Q-auto
            2001 156 V6 (sadly cremated)

The relay has a circuit the components need to be refreshed this corrects the problem I did it for my Gtv and guilietta

In addition to Alfapride suggestion, you could also try simply greasing/lubricating pivot points on wiper motor mechanism (might be slightly stiff).  Lubrication worked wonders on my noisy radiator fans (noisy once kicked in). A little  spray of wd40 whilst on quieten them down dramatically.
