Thank you again Mr Plyrod. I felt rather stupid after asking about the loose wire remembering after I wrote that there had to be power coming from somewhere..!! I think I'll use the extra lug on the motor as a secondary ground. I now have the motor at a local shop where the guy specialises in rewinding electric motors. Don't see too many people doing that nowadays. He's done a couple of jobs for me previously and he does great work. All the very best. Cheers, Bob

Thank you everyone. Mr Plyrod I have the same wiper motor as the one pictured. i noticed that there is one wire not connected to anything from the switch. Is that the earth.? And how is the motor earthed.? Thanks very much for the photo and the wiring diagram? It is going to be a great help. Cheers everyone.... Bob

Greetings from Australia..!! I have a 1947 Canadian built Dodge Special Deluxe sedan that has been converted to 12 volt except for the windscreen wiper motor. Sadly when I acquired the car the wiring left a lot to be desired. In fact there was no wiring to the wiper motor. Any "sparkies" out there who can advise me what wire goes where.? I have a 12v - 6v reducer ready to go. Any and all assistance will be greatly appreciated. Many thanks..!! Bob

Thanks again for the helpful advice. I've convinced a friend to call in this weekend and he had a few ideas as well as he is a service manager at a car dealership. Cheers.....

Hello everyone.... I'm brand new to the forum so please excuse any errors in format etc.... I live in Australia and recently acquired a Canadain built 47 Dodge Deluxe sedan that had, amongst other things, a badly cracked windshield. I have purchased a new rubber surround as well as two new pieces of glass. I will be reusing the chrome trim. There is no rust to contend with nor any other sort of damage around the windshield opening. Soooooo..... How do I install it..?? Any help will be much appreciated.
