Ken,

When you say you tried a new motor, do you mean just the motor or the motor with the gearhead? I have to assume that you exchanged the gearhead motor en toto. I hate to ask this, but did you check the fuses? Fuse number S17 specifically. If the fuse is good, you should have voltage at terminal 53a (GY/BK conductor of the connector) of the wiper motor with the ignition switch on. If this all checks out, then the rotary contact wiper park switch in the GEARHEAD CASE is most likely hinky.
