Subject:wiper motor wiring

This could seem funny someday -- after a massive multi-week engine
conversion and top-to-bottom mechanical overhaul of my Vanagon I'm about to
be forced to leave it behind for summer trip and take a car instead because
the WIPERS quit working at the last minute.  No wipers = no state
inspection = no registration papers.  I see 12v on some of the wires to the
wiper motor but a new motor didn't solve the problem, still dead.  Anybody
know what voltages and grounds should be showing on each wire to the 5-pin
connector to the wiper motor with the wiper switch set to off, low, high?

thanks a million if you know this info!
