Default Winshield wiper short

well to make a long story short my car started off making a weird noise when im driving when i turn on my headlights a day later the wipers turn to the on position but don't go up, they go back down and to the on position while driving like if there stuck and cant wipe put they do when i turn the switch i thought well great its a short not very common but then my friends ss started making the noise to and now they do the same thing as my car.( he thinks i sabotaged his car lol )is this common i tried to search but nothing came up just people asking how to replace wiper blades. any wiring diagrams or ways, tricks to fix this other than looking for the short
thanks
