Default Windshield Wiper Issue - Partial Operation

Hello All...

I have a 1986 928 and I am having trouble with my windshield wipers. I am hoping for some direction to help me get to the bottom of it.

I will be working on this tomorrow.
~ The wipers run fine on what seems like setting 1 and 2 (how many settings are there?).
~ If I pull it towards me I DO get spray.
~ The wipers will not park. I have to push the arm slightly up and release it when it gettis to a "good parking spot, lol"
~ There is no response from the intermittent wiper setting - which I am guessing is pushing the arm in the down position?
~ Is there a separate FUSE for the intermittent setting and parking of the wipers? A separate RELAY?

Any advise, guidance, direction will be and is GREATLY appreciated. You know that
What say you?

Check relay VII, it may be missing, corroded or failed. The other item in the circuit is the thumbwheel under the dash which adjusts the delay, but i think that only effects the intermittent wipe which is down one click on the stalk.

Nice Gaz... Thank you!

Shweeew,,, I was beginning to think I was alone on this, lol... I'll be back soon as I dig into things.

Anything about what's going on with the arm assembly, maybe?
