Ok I go it working, my problem was in the switch.

The plastic bar currently below the metal leads connects them when in the off position activating the park in the wiper motor.


The two leads in the center of the picture need to be touching when the stalk is in the off position, but not in any other position or it will cook the fuse.

In the off position I pushed on the lead with a screwdriver to verify the solution. Then I bent the outer metal lead about 1/2mm closer so that the fatigued plastic bar will connect them.


The park feature and the intermittent wiper started working once the wiper park circuit was connected.

I'm experiencing intermittent service from the intermittent wiper. I had to wiggle the potentiometer quite a bit since it hasn't run in 14 years, even though I have a fresh relay. I'll probably have to clean the components thoroughly and maybe replace the potentiometer before it works every time, but at least the wipers park.

It took me about 15 min the get down to the switch, and about another 30 min to correct the issue and put it back together. For those who also experience these symptoms, I highly recommend checking the switch first since it's pretty easy.
