Default wtf is wrong with my wipers?

got a 94 jeep grand cherokee. when i turn the wipers on they either turn on FAST or REALLY FAST, there is no variable speed until the fastest 2.

also, when i turn them off the wipers dont automatically return to the down position. they stay up or wherever i turned them off.

is there a solenoid or something i am missing? i replaced the motor but its not helping ---- at all.
