Default wiper motor

hello all.
looking under the search forums but it kept coming up zero but i know it has been covered.
girlfriends 97 accord and her windshield wipers just came on and stays on. they slow and speed by turning switch but will not turn off. had to pull fuse. am guessing the switch is bad. does his seem to be a common problem and how hard is it to get the handle off the steering column and change out?

I actually called a car help guid that was on the radio last weekend.
anyway they think that it is most likely a ground for the wipers. either in the switch ground or the motor ground
I just recieved a service manual but not an electrical person.
does anyone know where said grounds are located?
