Windshield washer won't shut off - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

The windshield washers in my 83 "pulse" windshield wipers will not shut off when the wipers are on. Is this necessarily the switch itself? I put a new switch in about 8 years ago, but I don't want to spend another $50 if I don't have to.
BTW, how are the pulse wipers supposed to work? What is the dial with the arrow for? I can move the wipers once by pushing the lever to the left, but sometimes that just causes the wipers to operate at low speed continuously, even after I release that lever.
