Wipers not working right

Ok, when i pull down on my wipers, they only spray but dont go on. when i pull back they go on, but only as long as i have it pulled, so if i let it go halfway up, it stops. also, the first click on(intermittent), doesnt work. and the last 2 do though. but like everything else, when i click back down to off from the hi/low settings, it stops at whatever spot it was when i clicked it back.

does anyone know what could be wrong with that??

Sounds to me as if the wiper switch/stalk is in trouble. If you have a friend with a 4g, then try swapping to see if it cures it, or try to find a used part.

It's the first thing I'd try.

the actual switch assembly that is attached to the steering column.

Good luck

before you trry that, look at the wiper relay, it's a black box by your clutch master cylinder. i had the exact same problem with mine. i swapped it out from one i got at the pull-a-part and everything was good. $20 and five minutes.
