Probably the park switch in the motor.

I would agree with Nick, self park switch contacts in the motor. Its fixable if you know what your doing, otherwise replacement motor.

Probably, Im kinda guessing the initial ping from the intermittent relay wont kick in if the motor is not parked correctly.
