The rev counter maybe a dodgy connection on the back of the alternator its only a daft little spade connector easy to replace if its broken

I'd echo this - it's an easy fix.

Do you mean, when you switch it for intermittent wipe, the motor runs constantly instead?
That'd probably be the 'park' switch on the motor case, if you've already changed the timer-relay (which is not the same one as the normal wiper relay).

Disco Matt:
Worth checking your alternator too - when my first one went it started over-charging the battery, symptoms of this included the battery light flashing on and off and the rev counter flailing around.
