Joel, just to follow up on this, you are saying the wire should be hot when the key is turned to the on position right? if so, I checked and the key is in the off position and I't still hot.

I dont want to plug the wiper motor in and cook it.

Well, Roger, I think the power feed to the wiper motor should be switched, but, without a diagram I can't be 100% sure. I do know it will have to have some type of co-ordination with the wiper door/saftey switch. I'll see can I locate a diagram, if nothing else comes up here soon...anyone?...anyone?...anyone?

I just rewired my car & had the most trouble with the wiper motor. I found a great article on another forum that explains everything. If you have access to a fax machine...e-mail me the number &  I fax everything over.
