Ok i have investigated it.. a bit

The fuses is fine.. the X contact relay is ok, i have changed it and the Main Intermitant controll relay is ok... Also the wipers work fine on Full speed.  This made me think Switch.. but i can here the relay click when i select diffrent speeds etc.. 

Does any one know if there is a controller on the motor?  If so i guess thats my problem.  I will swap it with my other one if it is.  :smiley:

swap the switch...these are fairly common to go faulty and normally show up with the smallest ammount of smoke!!
