WIndshield Wipers only start on fastest speed

Principles of Operation
The windshield wiper motor receive inputs from the following:

• multifunction switch
• lighting control module (LCM)
• ignition switch
• battery junction box (BJB)
• central junction box (CJB)

The following components are integrated into the windshield wiper motor:

• windshield wiper motor module
• high/low speed relay
• run/park sensor (Hall effect)
• washer pump relay

High Speed Windshield Wipers
High speed is activated when the multifunction switch supplies ground to the windshield wiper motor module inputs. The windshield wiper motor module then supplies ground to the run/park sensor and high/low relay coil, activating the relay with voltage supplied from the ignition switch (RUN/ACC) through the central junction box (CJB). When the windshield wiper motor module receives voltage from the run/park sensor, it removes ground from the run/park sensor, deactivating it. The windshield wiper motor continues to operate from voltage connected through the run/park sensor until the Hall effect senses the magnet in the motor. When the Hall effect senses the magnet in motor the windshield wiper motor returns to the park position, the internal run/park sensor grounds the windshield wiper motor module input and the windshield wiper motor module removes ground from the windshield wiper high/low relay coil, deactivating the high/low relay and windshield wiper motor. The windshield wiper motor module continues to cycle the windshield wipers until the inputs from the multifunction switch are changed from the high speed position.
Low Speed Windshield Wipers
Low speed is activated when the multifunction switch supplies a specific ground to the speed inputs of the windshield wiper motor module. The windshield wiper motor module then supplies ground to only the windshield wiper run/park relay coil, activating it. When the windshield wiper run/park relay is activated, the deactivated windshield high/low relay connects voltage to the windshield wiper motor low input activating the wiper motor. The windshield wiper motor module continues to operate the windshield wiper motor in the same manner as in high speed, but in low speed with the wiper motor connected to the low speed input.
Intermittent Speed Windshield Wipers
The intermittent wiper speed is activated with grounds controlled by the multifunction switch inputs to the windshield wiper motor module. The windshield wiper motor module then activates the windshield wiper run/park relay coil and switches voltage through the windshield wiper high/low relay. The high/low relay remains deactivated, supplying the voltage to the wiper motor low speed input and activates the windshield wiper motor. When the windshield wiper motor module receives the grounded input, the motor continues to operate until Hall effect sensors senses the wiper motors magnet, which turns off the run/park sensor output to the windshield wiper run/park software, deactivating the relay and disconnecting voltage to the wiper motor. The windshield wipers remain parked until the windshield wiper motor module completes a time-out and then repeats the intermittent windshield wiper cycle.
Washer System
The windshield washer is activated by the internal wiper motor module when it receives a ground from the multifunction switch between the washer input. Dependent on the correct ground, the internal wiper motor modules activates the windshield washer relay (internal) by grounding the respective relay coil. When the relay is activated, it connects voltage to the washer pump while the washer level switch provides ground to the washer pump.
Default Mode
The windshield wiper motor defaults to this mode when the run/park sensor does not sense the hall effect magnet inside wiper motor. This can be caused by obstruction of the windshield wipers or a binding linkage. The windshield wiper motor will continue to operate in a high/low speed condition for a period of 60 seconds.

There are two relay's in the under hood fuse / relay box . Wiper relay an wiper relay 2 . Maybe one is bad . also check fuse #14 25 amp. Wiper fuse.Plus the BCM - body control module has a hand in making the wipers work . Are you familiar with automotive electronic control modules ?
The Wiper/Washer System consists of the following components:
• Windshield wiper/washer switch
• Body control module (BCM)
• Wiper micro relay
• Wiper 2 relay
• Wiper diode
• Windshield wiper motor
• Windshield washer pump
• Windshield washer nozzles
• Windshield washer solvent container
• Windshield wiper arm and blade assemblies
• Windshield wiper transmission
• WIP/WASH 10A fuse
• WIPER 25A fuse

Wiper/Washer System Description
The body control module (BCM) controls wiper motor low speed operation. The washer pump and high speed operation are controlled directly by the wiper/washer switch. The windshield wiper/washer switch supplies voltage on the signal circuits to the BCM for windshield wiper/washer operation. When WASH, MIST, DELAY, LOW, or HIGH is detected, the BCM energizes the wiper micro relay by suppling voltage to the relay coil. This allows battery voltage from the WIPER fuse to flow through the relay switched input then through the contacts and out the relay switched output to the wiper 2 relay switch contacts. Since the wiper 2 relay switch contacts are normally closed to the low speed circuit of the windshield wiper motor, the motor will operate at low speed.

The windshield wipers only worked occasionally. ... My 1998 dodge ram wipers only work on high will this help me? thanks.... Express van. you have to take out the motor and the transmission from under the front of the van..

I am pretty positive your fuse for your windshield wipers are under the hood of your car.

1) It is normal for the wipers, in rain sensor mode, to cycle once upon startup.

2) In rain sensor mode, the wipers should be intermittent with the cycles increasing as the volume of moisture increases on the windshield. The speed will increase until it reaches the continuous slow speed of position 2 on the switch. It will not increase to the fastest speed which is position 3 on the switch. You have to go to the fastest speed by manually rotating the switch to postion 3. Doesn't seem like a design flaw to me.

This must be due to a defective windshield-washer-switch. Repacement of it is the only way.

• Windshield Wipers Continue to Run When Turn Signal and Windshield Wiper Switch Are Turned OFF

• Damaged turn signal and windshield wiper switch .
• Damaged windshield wiper motor .
• Damaged windshield wiper control module.

Windshield Wiper System The windshield wiper system consists of :

• Windshield wiper motor (17508) (F-type).
• Washer system.
• Windshield wiper control module.
• Turn signal and windshield wiper switch (13K359).

The windshield wiper control module is:

• Located at the instrument panel fuse panel.

The windshield wiper motor is:

• Attached to the cowl top extension (021A36) .
• Connected to windshield wiper mounting arm and pivot shaft (17566) .

The turn signal and windshield wiper switch features a:

• Rotary wiper switch.
• Push type washer actuator.

OFF/Low/High Speed

• Has a two-speed, permanent magnet, three brush electric windshield wiper motor .
• The windshield wiper motor has a brush rigging that permits selection of low or high speed.
• When the turn signal and windshield wiper switch is in the LO position, the common brush and the blue/orange wire brush are used, and the windshield wiper motor operates at low speed.
• When the turn signal and windshield wiper switch is in the HI position, the common brush and the white wire brush are used.
• In HI position, electric current will bypass a portion of the armature winding causing the windshield wiper motor to operate faster.
• When the turn signal and windshield wiper switch is moved to the OFF position, the windshield wiper motor will continue at low speed until the park switch outer contacts open.
• When the park switch contacts open, the windshield wiper motor stops in the park position.

Interval
When the turn signal and windshield wiper switch is in the interval position:

• The wipers make single wipes separated by pauses.
• The rotary switch is on the end of turn signal and windshield wiper switch .
• The length of the pause can be set from approximately 1 to 17 seconds.
• Length of pause decreases as the rotary switch is rotated away from off.
• Length of pause increases as the rotary switch is rotated toward off.

While in the interval wiper mode:

• It is normal to hear a slight click at the beginning of each on/pause cycle. NOTE: When using interval wipers, the first wipe may not occur until after a pause of up to 17 seconds.
  

Hi,
It's not a case in fuse.....It's a michanical matter....
