	Just been round by mates looking at his Minor, tidying things up really, problem is with the wipers, part of the loom has been cut out, which is the bit that runs to the wipers, comeing off the wiper motor are 2 wires, one red and one black, and an earth terminal Which one is run and which one is run, put a live and earth to the red and black the motor runs, put the neg to the earth point, and a live to either of the black or red it just sparks and no rotational movement.How should it be wired?? Ian ;D

	Well, a quick look in the manual says... three screw terminals, numbered 1, 2, 3 . 1 is top, (Green wire, +ve supply from fusebox) 3 is the earth terminal on the case (black wire, goes to E terminal on control box) 2 is the switch, (Black/green wire to switch, then black to earth) I know this doesnt help with the colours you have, I'd guess at the red being supply and the black the earth. I'd also suspect that the motor may be faulty if it doesn't work when you earth the case...
