'78 slow/no windshield wipers
When I first got my 78 a few months ago, the wipers turned on just fine. The delay didn't work, but that was ok. If I was stopped at a stop light, they would slow down tremendously. Ocassionally they would just quit working when stopped.
I don't normally drive the car in the rain, but the other day I went to run on the wipers... nothing. Played with the electric connection, nothing.
Does this sound like a motor replacement to you guys?

They don't make this part anymore. You might find a used one on E-bay or a junk yard. I think there was a thread on rebuilding this switch.
