windshield wipers

[babycritter]

My issue is they don't work. New motor. But by chance with test light I touched the wires. The wipers would move. So are there any grounds that go to the switch. I have different switch but the same thing happens. Moved relay around. The wipers stop on the up position. Son in law changed the steering column. it's a 1997 xlt 5.4

Depends on how you were using the test light, you can supply power or a ground with it.

that's how i was using it. any help would be great i'm open to ideas.

It would help to know if you were supplying power or ground.

 

[babycritter]

i was using it as a ground

Grounds are behind the kick panels.

 

[babycritter]
