2001 sport front wipers are acting strange. We just picked this up a week ago. I thought i checked wipers, but honestly can't recall now. I had issue with fog lamps that i repaired, but now i notice the front wipers don't come on. The spray works and with that the wipers move just fine, but they won't apparently come on unless i pull the control forward for the spray function.

I've read other threads where the motor is bad, but i don't think that's the case because they move with the spray. Same with the fuse..... can't believe that's the issue if they work as mentioned. I pulled apart the multi function control to repair the lights, but other than pulling that relay i didn't touch the wipers. What does that relay control? Lights or wiper? I'm thinking lights. If it's the wiper control is that repairable?
