Default Wipers Sticking and bonnet open apparently!

I have a 04 Audi A3 2.0 FSi Sport 3 door and a couple of problems have appeared this week.
1) The wipers if they are on, when you pull up at a juntion or stop the car with the engine still on, should go on intermitent and then revert back to the pre-set setting when you set off, however as of this week when, with the wipers on and I pull up, they just stop wherever they are on the windowscreen and don't start again until I start moving again. They work fine apart from this 1 niggling fault which is very annoying given all the rain we have had in the UK this week.

2) The drivers information system in between the rev counter and the speedo, indicates that my bonnet (Hood) is open. I have closed the bonnet several times, but the display remains the same. I assume there is some sort of sensor in the bonnet catch?

Thanks for your help
Richard
