    I have a 2011 Prius. I have been having issues with the windshield wipers not coming on unless I turned them on high, then the other settings would work. Was driving in 4 hours of rain tonight and lost all the settings except for high. Thinking motor, any thoughts?

    Could be the switch stalk?

    There might be a solution in the attachment.

    (Just browsing, it says there's "pips" on the windshield where the wiper blade tips should come to a stop. Can't say I've ever noticed those, maybe they dropped the idea?)
