Did I fry my high speed on my front wiper?
Originally, both speeds for my wipers were the same. By splicing into the white/blue wire just before the wiper motor and harness connection, I got the high speed.
I decided to install a toggle to operate just the high speed. I used the BATT at the fuse box to power and test the toggle setup.
During the process the BATT lost power and the high speed on the wiper motor no longer works. I ran a wire directly from the battery to the wiper motor to test the high speed again resulting in a no go. Slow speed still works.
I tried to slice into the blue wire on the wiper motor side of the wiper connection with a direct 12volt and it still did not work.
How could the BATT die and fry the high speed on the wiper motor?
Did I fry just the high speed on the wiper motor?
