Default Intermitent Wipers stopped...

It doesn't rain often here in CO, however, yesterday I had my wipers on intermitent mode and they just stopped.
They work on Wash/Low/High, just no intermitent...
Is this the switch or motor?
I saw some threads that might link this to the circut board in the motor.
If this is the circut board can you replace just it or do you need a whole new motor?
Thanks..

The chart in my 87 manual points to the motor cover electronics as the cause for no intermittent operation. Of course, that's after checking to make sure that the control voltage is correct coming from the switch. If not, it's either the switch or the wiring from the switch. I suspect this is applicable to 93 as well, and if so, yes the wiper cover electronics are available separately from MAM and TLD (that I know of). Guess who's got the same problem.

I noticed that there is actually a hole in the plastic WW motor. No wonder the intermitent stopped working!!
