Default 72 wiper problem

Finishing a body off resto,I can not get the wipers to work normally.When I turn on the wipers, I hear the switch(electric click)but the wipers will not work.If I manually press the limit switch,they will work (the inside wiper selector is in the slow or fast position) normal.Any suggestions ?

It could be the switch located on the firewall engine compartment near the wiper door actuator it has adjusting screw to correctly hit the switch telling the wipers its safe to come out the door is open.
