The most common fault is the switch itself. Easy-ish to replace.
There is also a 'park' switch on the motor but they don't seem to fail very often.
As for the switch ....it might be repairable. I fixed one once, years ago, using instructions found online from a Jag outfit. I've long forgotten the details and the web page has been gone for years....but perhaps someone here remembers.

it could be the wiper switch at the steering column, or the park switch at the wiper motor.
I would start checking at the wiper switch at the steering column. Worn contacts inside the switch case will cause this symptom.
Page 84-1 of the Electrical Section / factory service manual, shows you how to remove the switch.

I have a 2006 Newsletter from the Music City (Nashville) Jaguar Club. where it shows how to rebuild the switch.

If someone can post the internal switch parts, I can tell you how to do it.
I have done other brushed switch conversions, for non-automotive brushed switches. It's easy to do. Brushless switches are good for up to 50,000 movements.
Brushless switches come in several styles, sliding and rotary.
