I'm assuming you've checked:
1. Relay
2. Switch
3. Wiring

Joe HC is exactly right about the wire. This winter my white wire broke right on top of the tranny. I couldn't get it at with my jack and jackstands and ending up taking it to a mechanic to splice! Not funnnn....Maybe yours is corroded but not completely gone, so some juice is getting through. Could be grounding out on the case.

As I understand it, sometimes the relay will click but not actually work. You might want to check that.

Don't mean to be redundant, but have you tested all the electrical components with a multimeter?
