Hi Peter

I don't have the info that you want but it shouldn't be to difficult to figure out. I would suspect that the black is earth, of the other two, one needs permanant 12 volts for wiper parking, the other is live when you switch the wiper on.

Check with a meter that you have those voltages on the existing leads first because they can fail where they go from the body to the tailgate, if OK connect the black to earth and put the 12v on either of the other leads and see what happens. Just touch them first to make sure there isn't a dead short or check them with the meter ohms range.


What are the colours on the original motor?
