Sounds like the wiper park switch on the motor, have you disconected it and put it back on recently?

Or it could be that the column stalks are knackered mate.
I changed mine with a half decent 2nd hand set a while back and hey presto I had twin speed wipers again.
Although no flick wipe, but I'll be damned if I'm paying a small fortune for a brand new set.

Taffy is probably right then and it most likely the stalks  might be worth che3cking all the conections to make sure nothing has come off  |

Not really, only when their old and worn out as I discovered with mine. If the wipers self-park, then the wiper motor park-switch should be fine. Although it wouldn't hurt to check all the connections are in good shape anyway and correctly wired up as in the image below: -  |
