Direct wire 67 widshield wipers?

The wireing harness on my 67K20 completly melted due to the fact that the voltage regulater had not been connected in decades. battery blew up and all kinds of stuff melted. rather than buy a new harness for $499.00 I bought a new fuse box for $9.99 and a bunch of toggle switches. I allready had a 100ft spool of 14ga wire. added a spool of 12ga. I installed a new starter, new alterator w/ internal regulator, new ignition key switch and a bunch of stuff in the distributer etc. all running good now.
I removed and threw away the old wireing harness. I have all my lights working with toggle switches. I have the heater/ defroster motor working with toggle switch. My last big hurdel and fairly key for a plow truck is the windshield wipers. There are 5 wires comming out of the wiper motor. I assume that part of that was for the washer pump? I tried energizeing all the different combos w/ no results......

The wiper switch is the ground circuit.
