Wiper problem on Megane II

I have a wiper problem on my 04 reg 1.9dCi Megane that has surfaced recently.

Switching on the wipers from the off position has no response until the fast setting - they appear to work normally on fast.

Switching down to normal speed, the wipers vary between normal and 'stuttered' operation, where they jerk across the screen, often stopping for a bit before starting again.

Switching down again to intermittent, they stop completely.

I think I have automatic intermittent wipers - I have automatic lights fitted also.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? I assume the motor is ok since fast speed works ok. Could this be an issue with the stalk?

Hmm, strange one that. It could be the stalk, try getting it open/off and cchecking the wiring/connections, maybe clean the contacts.

One other thing, which is a slim chance it could be, is the wiper linkage, give it some lubrication on the joints.......just a possibility!
