How can you tell if it's your wiper blade motor or the switch on your steering wheel that's gone bad for your wipers to work only on high?

If the motor works on high, or any speed, then it's fine. Switches and resistors control speed and delay.

Is there batteries for wella xpert clippers?
Remove the single screw from the base plate. Remove the cutting blade. Use either a very narrow screw driver or a large paper clip that you straighten out to about 3". Look at the space where the blade was. At the very top center is a small square hole in the white plastic above the motor shaft. Insert the driver or clip into the hole until it rests against the switch. Holding it firm slide the switch cover forward until it clicks. (if you turn the motor on then you missed the switch inside and you need to reposition the clip you inserted into the hole and try again.) Once the switch cover is loose, just remove it. Now push from the rear where you removed the base plate and the entire assembly will slide out of the front of the clipper cover. Remove the switch assy. from around the front of the motor and it lifts off to access the battery pack. Replace the battery pack and assembly is just the reverse.

Why would front windshield wipers not turn off?
An electric motor needs 2 primary things for it to run. First, it needs power, second, it needs a ground to complete the electrical circuit. Normally this is controlled by the switch... In this case the wiring diagram needs to be compared to the physical condition of the wiring. If the on/off switch opens/closes the ground, then there is an alternate ground in the circuit probably due to a broken wire. If the on/off switch opens/closes the power, then there usually would be a short in the on/off switch, and the power is spanning the switch. .. Goog luck..

Why do the windshield wipers go on and off 1996 Dodge Grand Caravan?
The wiper motor has a switch inside of it. When they are turned off and the wipers go to the down position it trips the switch in the motor that tells the computer they are in the down position. If that switch in the motor is faulty, the wipers are repositioning until the switch is tripped to the off position. THE FIX.... Replace the wiper motor.

There is a switch inside the wiper motor that identifies the home spot for the wipers. If you have intermittent wipers there is also a controller for that.
