Ford Focus intermittent wiper problem?

Occasionally when using the single wipe function of my 2003 Focus 2.0 Ghia, the wiper blades stop when I let go of the stalk (i.e. they stop part-way across the screen). This doesn't happen all of the time, & often cures itself for short periods when switching between this & the normal intermittent or permanent wipe.
I guess this may be a warranty repair anyway, but wonder if anyone has an idea what may be causing it?

done
faulty relay fuse. if you know where it is located pull it out and re-insert it might have a corroded earthing in the fuse box. by re-inserting it you would have given it a fresh earthing.If it doesnt work properly get it to a garage
