At startup wipers make 1-2 swipes
SOURCE: The passenger windshield wiper does not work
if you have only one wiper arm moving then your wiper linkage is broken i get used wiper linkages from the auto recyclers to remove the old one you have to remove the 2 wiper arms raise them up and slide the little clip out to hold it upright either pry or wiggle the arm off then undo the screws for the grill under the wiper arms while the hood is raised undo the bolt on the wiper motor etc. replace the part and put everything back together you may have to try putting the wiper arms on a few times until it doesn't hit the edge of the windshield and retracts down properly $40 (Canadian) for used parts if you do it yourself $90 - $130 in new parts maybe $140 - $200 in parts and labor to have someone else do it
SOURCE: how to replace windshield wiper motor in
should be fairly simple. mark the wipers position while they are off for reinstallation. remove the wiper arms by taking the nuts off the bottom side, and gently pry up on them and work them loose. with the hood up, remove the wiper cowl (plastic that runs along the bottom of the windshield). the wiper motor will be on the drivers side. the wiper linkage usually either bolts on directly to the motor shaft with one bolt. take that bolt/nut off, remove the mounting bolts on the motor itself, unplug the motor and remove. to install reverse process and put wiper arms back to the position you marked them.

These are "rain sensing" wipers and will occasionally do this based on the sensitivity setting and the amount of light outside. Most of the time the system works fairly well, I sometimes leave the wipers off if it's dry out.

Sounds like the wiper relay is on the fritz. Get the manual out and find the wiring diagram/ fuse box and replace the relay, this should fix the problem.
