Default Wipers not working as intended on 1985 Corvette

Not too long ago, my wiper blades on my 1985 Corvette stopped working as they should. It started with slight stuttering on each setting then completely stopped working shortly after. I replaced the motor, the switch, and the circuit board. Even after replacing all of those parts the only setting that'll work occasionally is HIGH. When operating in the HIGH mode it'll still stutter occasionally near the parking position and won't park properly. I'm going to check the transmissions next. Has anyone encountered a similar situation? If so any advice is appreciated.

Best to update your profile in ''settings'' to let us know what year C4 you own.

As well, mention the year in question threads like these.

Otherwise you won't get much response.

Especially being your first post on here, respectfully speaking. So often on first posts, people end up here when their search engine leads them here when looking for an answer. They post a question and then never come back around again. It happens all of the time. So most just don't want to waste their time, knowing that this happens so frequently.

Well I have a '90, so don't know much about the earlier mode switches. Maybe somebody with an earlier model will chime in.

I think the moros are the same but I dunno about the circuit board and switches.
