    Wiper Motor Wiring (diagram added)

    This may actually be the last electrical "bug" I have left to fix on my truck...

    It appears that when they painted the inside of my cab, they knocked a couple of wires off of the wiper motor. I believe it's a stock, 2 speed motor ('61 Chevy). Looking up at it from under the dash, there are 3 wire terminals in a row against the firewall and one terminal (it looks to be connected to the center of the other three) to the inside.

    Can anyone tell me for sure how this is supposed to be wired up? I don't want to hook it up wrong and burn up a motor.

    I've added a quick diagram of what I am looking at, laying in the floor looking up under the dash. I can't see if the terminals are actually numbered, so the numbers on my diagram are for reference only. If someone can tell me what each of the terminals is supposed to be connected to I'd appreciate it!!!

    Thanks!

    Nevermind. I looked in my '61 Shop Manual Suppliment and it had the wiring diagram for the wiper motor. Everything works as it should now :)

    ok this may be long winded but... according to my 60-66 factory assembly instruction manual ( yellow book) At the wiper motor shows a 2 wire plug in one wire (white)gos to switch and other gos to fuse box. at the switch the white wire gos in bottom spade and to the top of switch looks to be a ground wire accroding to the wiring diagram now on another page it shows a brown wire going from the washer to to fuse box hope this helps. I find the manual quite helpful Kilroy was here!!!
