Update - Windshield Wiper Motor and Washer Pump


So I got this wired up, and it wasn't working. Started troubleshooting and when I attempted to unplug the wiper motor(front plug) it completely pulled one of the male spade connectors right out of the motor. So I shoved the spade back in the motor. I pulled the cover off and this is what I found. The motor winding is VERY exposed. Super cheap. But whatever. I soldered the wire back to the spade and made sure I got it fixed before I completely installed.

So the main reason it wasn't working was that it wasn't grounded. I went through a bunch of threads and found the info I needed. I ended up gounding the motor case and got all the plug wires correctly installed and it works as designed. I made a video while I had it apart to show how the motor and washer works with the switch.

Here is the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKWSsBkrbA0


Here if you look close you can see the disconnected wire I yanked off.







Soldered the wire, and got all the plugs correct.





Switch connector.
