Check the grounds for the lights and washer pump at the inner fender just behind the lights. There is a grounding lug attached to the sheet metal and the ground wires plug in with spade conectors. If the ground is poor, the components seek ground and can cause the problems you describe. Have seen it before. When operating turn signal, wipers ran a few strokes. Turn signal was grounding through the wiper relay via the washer pump wiring.
