Wind Shield Wiper timer is broken

Hello all, Recently my wind shield wipers stopped working properly. The first setting on the wipers where you can speed up or slow the wipers down doesn't work. The wipers go at one rate no matter how I adjust it. Also when I turn the wiper off, they just stop whereever they were when I turned them off. I have to "time" it, to get them to go back down. I hope this made sense. I have a 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS. Non-Turbo I want to fix this on my own. Do any of you know what it could be? Could it be a small part that needs to be replaced? Also, I don't know if this is related...but my right blinker, blinks really really really fast. Maybe it's something in common. Any advice / help would be appreciated. Thanks!

the reason why your blinker is blinking like that is because the bulb on that side is burnt out, the winsgiled wiper problem is probably just the switch assemble, you will have to go to mitsubishi and get the right part
