Re: help in the rain
Randy,
From your profile the car in question is a 67.
To test the wiper motor, connect 12 volt power to the center (brown) wire and ground the other two. With both grounded the motor should run on low speed, with only one grounded it runs on high. Be careful not to short the motor out as it's tight in there.
Instructions for the test are in the service manual you should double check that first.
If the motor works with this test than the problem lies inside at the wiper switch or ground problem.- Top
