Since I am not familiar with your 99 Solara, this answer will be generic, but probably applies to your vehicle. Most vehicles for the last 30 or so years have multiple function windshield wiper systems. Most modern wiper systems include a high speed setting [cycle rate], a medium speed setting, a low speed setting, AND an INTERMITTANT [or variable delayed] setting, which is slower than even the low speed, and in addition, the interval of delay between wipes is variable and usually is adjusted by the vehicle operator with a slide switch, or a rotary switch on the end of the wiper control lever. If you inadvertantly bump or hit the control lever or switch, the intermittant function cycle can be initiated, causing to wiper to operate, seemingly as if by magic. Or, if the control is set to the intermittant position. Find your owner/operator manual to learn how to use or disable the intermittant function of your wipers. If you do not have a manual, go to a dealership new or used car salesman and ask for instructions: they are generally very happy to share their knowledge with you, especially since all satisfied owners of their vehicles are a potential buyer later on. If this method is unsuccessful, then try one of the parts people, and then one of the service department service writers. If that should fail, then when you are at Wal-Mart, or any similar large parking lot, keep an alert watch for a vehicle like yours, and wait for the owner, and then explain your problem and ask them to explain [even demonstrate/teach] operation of their wiper system. If that fails, then to my knowledge, your last resort is to go to the Parts Department of the dealership for your vehicle. and ORDER [you gotta buy and pay for] a replacement Owner/Operator manual, making sure that it is for your specific make, model, and year.j3h.
My wipers come on when the turn signal is used - Ford recommends replacing a revised mulifunction switch (turn signal switch)
Yes, it has a fuse and a relay.

It's your wiper modular
The dealer I bought my 99 Solara brand new from said Mid grade is fine and I don't need to pay the extra cost for the premium.
Look under the dash behind the coin holder. Cheers
try checking the switch
There are several things that can cause your windshield wipers not to work. The most common cause is a malfunctioning windshield wiper motor.
The 1999 Toyota Solara takes 22" drivers and 21" passenger side wiper blades. See sources and related links below for more information. Since there are over 22 different wiper arm attachments, do not buy wipers just by length only. Be sure to lookup exact wiper blade part numbers by vehicle make, model and year for the brand wiper you decide to purchase. This ensures correct length AND correct attachment.
it may have a cracked circuit board, my blazer had the same problem
On my Tahoe one of the door triggers was going bad.
No, it will not. Toyota parts from different year models rearly fit to other year models.
