wiper high not working

My windshield wiper switch or something is goofy. On intermittent and low it's fine. Once I select high/fast the wipers will stop wherever they are at.

anyone know what's up with that, or what I need to replace.

If so, is it a DIY type job or do I need to take it to the stealership .

My guess is dirty contacts in you wipper switch/blinker arm. Im not sure if opening it up and cleaning it out would be a good idea...lots of tinny parts in there that you can easily loose. If you slightly rotate the arm back and forth on the high setting can you get it to move at all??

thx for the reply.

I remember wiggling it some, but I'll try to see if jiggling it will help any. I don't think it will.

sometimes my wipers on the intermittent setting will act weird too, ck out this write up another member did http://www.cumminsforum.com/forum/3340450-post13.html

sounds like it could be the MFS (multi function switch) getting dirty

you can access it by taking off the column tilt handle and/or the bottom part of the steering column cover. hope this helps, i'll probably be doing taking mine apart this wkend.
