The reason I asked was that one of my headlight wipers stuck on, It would only stop when I switched the lights off, the wiper would stop at random positions on the headlight, the only way to cure it was a wiper motor relacement.

Sounds like poor earth to me. Remove h/lights and clean up earth points. Worth too removing the h/lamp wiper motor cover (carefully as they are plastic) , clean, re grease motor assy and oil shaft within housing.
