The supply to the motor run switch (in the wiper motor itself) is missing.

 

And the wiper motor is only getting the intermittant wipe supply, possibly a poor earth or dirty connector at the motor.

 

You may have a fault in the stalk, the wipe relay (they suffer from solder joint problems) or a wiring/fuse issue.

 

My bet would be the relay...

I have a problem with the rear wiper on my Gal - it makes the "outgoing" sweep OK, starts the return journey but stops about 15 deg into the arc, waits about 1 second then continues OK. I've just learnt to live with it.

Ditto, the problem on the rear Wash Wipe. Same symptoms. '98 S Alhambra

I had a similar rear wiper problem on a Volvo 940; it was caused by wear in the linkage between the motor and the wiper itself. I don't know if the set up on the Galaxy makes this a possibility or not.
