1972 Cutlass, wiper issue. Off in high position, high in off.

Customer car. With the switch in the off position, the wipers operate in the high speed, low speed in low & inop. with switch in high speed position. I've ran into this before but can't remember what the problem was/is? I've switched the connector around with no luck, along with the black/yellow connector on the motor. Any help appreciated.

wiper switch

A friend just had this problem doing a W31 resto.
He took the interior switch apart & turned the contact lobe 180, now works good. It seems like a lot of the newer or repop switches have this problem.
Hope this helps.
