Very strong chance that the wiper module is bad. It sets on top of the wiper motor.

You may be able to get it to act by running the wipers and tapping on the module (tap test).

On the light problem, Are you replacing the whole assy:

thank you so much for the advice and information, ran a wire from the wiper motor to ground on firewall. Wipers are now working fine, for now will be replacing wiper motor.
