Re: wipers
Welcome...
I would start by checking the earth strap on both the battery to the body and the earth on the wiper motor

Re: wipers
Welcome Danie! 
Also check the contacts of the little 'fingers' in the box section of the motor (best is to remove the motor first). Those contacts are normally on the inside of the round cover and run against brass tracks on the gearwheel inside ... just bend the fingers outwards ever so slightly to ensure good contact.

When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!
