Unhappy 73 gmc wipermotor and switch w/pump

hi guys and girls. i need help with wiring the 2 speed switch to the wiper motor. my wiper switch harness has 3 wires , a grnd , 1 dark blue and 1 light blue. i tried searches, but no help. the wiper motor has 3 spades for the wiper sw hookup plus 2 spades for the washer pump. i changed the fuse panel from glass fuses to spades. i attached a blue wire marked wiper motor power to the middle spade from fuse panel on the 3 spade location. i have power to that spade after checking with the tester light. where do the other 2 go? the wiper sw is a 1994151 standard 2 sp sw. thanks in advance for any help.

Cool I'm still messing with mine bc I have an 86 steering column and want the wiper controls to work on it so I've been searching for wire diagrams and stuff. The later motors are a bit different but glad I could help.

The factory wiring diagrams are in my signature. The connectors GM used are either Delphi Packard 56 or Delphi Pak-Con. The connector part #s in the wiring diagrams will tell you which it is.
