The switch could be bad. I'm starting to have issues with mine.

Sounds like the door wiring harness is pinched & cut somewhere.

What he said. I replaced my motor, replaced the switch and then started looking and found the orange wire in the main bundle by the battery was cut. Connected it back up and wallah my wipers worked again.
