 I have swapped in a known good relay with no change in performance.
 I have also cleaned the switch contacts as well as possible with the
 switch in place, a procedure which has worked wonders in the past but not
 this time.

 Any suggestions? >>

Tony,

Parking is a function of the relay. That is assuming your wiper arm isn't
simply slipping from it's post.
