Wiper motor doesn't work - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I recently tried putting my wiper motor in my 72 gmc truck, but it doesn't seem to work. I have juice going in to the yellow wire and the wiper motor is mounted in on the truck. I have the switch hooked up but not sure if it works. any way to test it and the motor. Also not sure if the connectors are on wright at the wiper motor because they can go onn on both ways.

Just a quick thought,
Do you have the switch bolted in or just laying hooked up to the wires? The wiper switch must be "grounded" for it to work.
