[Tigers] Wiper Question

Many times when electrical things do not work correctly it is due to poor ground or poor connections at the switch.

 

Purple / White wire is listed on wire diagram for the door switches to the interior light.

Hi,

 

I got caught out in the rain yesterday and had to use the wipers.  Everything worked fine at first; I could turn them on and off as needed.  But then it got where the wipers would not turn off.  With the switch in the off position the wipers seem to go into a third, slower speed. Kind of like the intermittent setting on modern cars.  I actually like this speed because it was just lightly misting .   After several minutes they would eventually stop.  And then occasionally it would start up again on its own.

 

 I found a similar issue on the SAOCA website and the answer was related to a "stop wire".  Can somebody tell me where to find that wire?  I've looked all around the wiper motor but can't seem to find it.  

 

Another question: While looking at the wires going to the wiper motor I noticed a wire coming out of the wiring harness right next to the wiper wires that is not hooked up to anything.  It is purple with a white stripe and there is nothing anywhere close to it that it would hook up to.  I've looked at the wiring diagram and can't find a match.  See the photo below.

 

 

 

Can anybody tell me what that purple/white wire would go to?  

 

Thanks,

Joe Brown
