I'm replacing the port side wiper and was rewiring everything and can't seem to figure things out.

There are 4 wires going to the starboard wiper motor area - 3 of which seem live and the other is black so assume groung.

Orange/Green Stripe
Orange (plain)
Orange/Bloack Stripe
Black

Assume the black is ground but where the heck do the other wires go? The wiper motor Startboard side has 4 wires (#1, #2, #3 & BLACK) and the port side has 3 wires (#1, #3 & BLACK).

Any ideas how to run the wires?

Maybe it is the heat but I'm just not getting this.

Thanks,
David

Ok I figured the wiring out (I hope) and it seems to work including self parking. Here's the wiring in case someone else needs help with this.

Starboard: black plus orange and black goes to Port side ground wire.
Starboard: orange wire goes to #1 wire and then to #1 wire port side
Starboard: green plus orange goes to #3 wire port side wiper.

Now the problem, i had everything working great except the port side wiper was set to 110 degrees so I changed it to 80 and now it wont park correctly. Thinking I may need to adjust the wheel inside. Anyone run into this before?

Jeez, can they make these wipers any harder?
