Relay for wipers?

My wipers only work on second (high) speed and don't park themselves. I had a look in the Wiki and it seems either the motor is knacked or the relay may be dodgy. I can't seem to find a relay either in the van or in the Haynes. I've still got the ceramic type fuses so assume it's an early type wiring model. Any ideas where I should look or maybe there isn't one?

Might be worth removing steering wheel and checking wiper stalk for continuity. Check connector is pushed fully home first.

And 5 mins later it's, 'buy that man a pint at the next Pikey!' Thanks Cov. A bit of switch cleaner then some silicon grease and normal service is resumed.
