Please help! 1981SC wiper problem driving me up......... THE FLIPPIN WALL!!!!!

Symptons are, with headlights on wipers will go on randomly, with headlights off and flash high beams wipers go on, headlights off using left and right turn signals wipers go on.

Parts I have replaced, wiper switch, intermitten wiper relay, and turn signal switch(new) two years ago. The wiper switch and intermitten relay are out of other cars.
Also fresh engine and tranny re-build 1200 miles ago.

Is there anything I've overlooked? Has anyone else had symptons like these and cured the problem?

This is really pissing me off.

Sounds s like a grounding problem. try substituting grounds for the wiper motor and switch and see if it helps.

When I hit 100 Mph my wipers lift partially up the windshield. kind of ruins the moment. Any idea why?

I know where the ground for the wiper switch is. Where is the ground for the motor?
