Or you could resolder the connections as shown in the thread below:

Drill out the rivets and pull the cover off. Use bolts and nuts to reattatch.

If you do not have the delay system I am not sure if there is a circuit board or not. The fault isolation I listed in a previous post had two different approaches. One with delay and one without.

base wiper system the following applies: With Ignition Switch On, Wiper Switch in Off position, remove connector from wiper terminal, connect jumper from terminal No. 2 and No. 3 and 12 volt source to terminal 4. if wiper parks replace column switch, If Wiper still runs repair wiper motor (Check Park Switch Actuator and Brush Holder Assy)
