Matt,

That big resistor is associated with the two-speed heater motor.  Joe is asking about the windshield wiper motor.

The 2 speed was achieved by a big resistor across the motor. Green goes to 12v supply via fuse block, black to chassis ground. Red and brown to switch at 1 and 4 with one of them, probably green going via the resistor. 6 on the switch goes to chassis ground. 
That is an SV Alpine setup. Should be the same.

Hi,

I'm trying to test everything before I install things under the dash.  I'm now trying to test the wiper motor.  There are four wires coming out- red, green, brown and a ground wire on the case.  If I put 12V between the red and green the motor works.  But nothing happens if I put 12V on any other combination of wires.  Shouldn't I be able to get a different speed using another wire?

Secondary question: is there a diagram that shows which wire goes to which post on the switch?  I have the wiring diagram but it doesn't show how the wires connect to the switch.

Thanks,
Joe Brown
