Windshield wiper motor

I replaced my wiper motor on my 67 c10, reconnected the washer lines and installed a new wiper switch. Now whenever I turn the wipers on it washes the windshield?! Any ideas? Bad switch maybe? Maybe I somehow installed the motor wrong? (if you reply to this you know what a pain it is to get to!)

Any help is appreciated!

I would suspect the switch. I realize it's new but I would try the old one if you still have it. (unless you know it doesn't work) Just remember the switch has to be mounted in the dash before the wiper/washer will work because it provides the ground for the circuit....

7tee: Here is a thread on testing the wiper motor.

I also included a picture of the wiring connections.

Thanks Lock Doc!

Yes thanks Michael, It sounds like I will need that switch. How much do you want for it?
