Both of my old mopars wiper motors appeared to be properly grounded, but didn't work.
Try jumpering the body of the motor to a good ground.
It has worked for me every time so far.

Inside or attached to the wiper switch at the dash is a thermal breaker designed to open up if the motor tries to draw too much current - for example, if the arms were stuck in ice. The breaker resets when it cools down in 15-30 seconds or so. The factory treats the wiper switch/breaker as a single unit, but another breaker could be substituted if you can't find a good switch. Breakers aren't really intended to cycle a lot and tend to get flaky when that happens. Switches, wiring, and motors are totally different for the 1sp, 2sp, and var/3sp setups. Diconnect the leads at the motor and see if you get power there and make sure it's not just mechanically bound up. |
