I have had so many problems with this thing. First the intermitting wipers would work when they wanted to then sometimes they would just start running when off. I fixed that by replacing the motor. Then when ice came I cranked the truck, didnt remember having them on and they moved till they hit the ice and died so I bought another motor and it only runs on high and will not park. I've swapped relays checked fuses, checked power at the connector. I got 12v at two pins in low mode and high and even gor intermitting power on the other wire. One has low voltage, not sure what that is.

I swapped that motor out for another now and it only runs on high as well. What am I missing?

By process of elimination I would have to guess its the multifunction switch too.

You can clean them, worth a shot if you have the tools, you will need long small torx:

Or buy a new one

Do the contacts on the back of the motor come with new motors? If not, clean them up good with some sandpaper and then dialectric grease. Good luck,

I vote multi function switch too. My 05 Daytona had similar issues with the wipers, went through 2 motors before i realized it was the switch. I didn't know you could clean them so I just replaced mine. Good luck bud

It's most likely the multi switch, make sure to use oem, aftermarket is junk, same for the motors. Ask how I know:(
