Wiper Problems in My 82 Cutlass

[82oldskid]

I'm having a real problem with my 82 Cutlass... The wipers are constantly working and the washer pump always spraying. I thought the pulse board was the issue, and had a whole new motor and pump sitting on the shelf, so i swapped that in, and it was fine for about 2-3 weeks, then it started acting up again. So, i thought maybe it was the switch in the column, but that doesnt seem to be the problem either. So, i'm more or less stumped. I'd love to look at a wiring diagram, but of course can't find one of them either. I'm getting quite fed up with it. I need some help, if anyone has any idea's, it would be greatly appreciated.

get a haynes repair manual they have the wiring diagrams in the back of the manual. check your grounds, and iam not sure if that model has a wiper relay under the dash?

check the grounds in the back of a haynes manual at autozone for your car

Ok, i actually picked up a wiring diagram from my buddy who has access to the garage version of alldata. If I read it correctly, the wiper motor grounds itself to the chassis? can i get a ruling on this, please? thanks much.

I don't see how the motor grounds itself since it sits on 3 rubber mounts..
