WIPER PROBLEM - CONTINUING 200 1986

Rebuilt wiper motor - magnet had come loose from casing. Wipers worked once. Now no movement at all. No voltage at wiper motor connector. Have what appears to be normal voltages at steering column switch, but not in receipt of Bentley Manual yet so can't nuke it out myself. Here's the data (tried to insert a table but couldn't):

Connector position 1 (green lead): 12V w/switch in every position (incl "pull to wash") except OFF
Connector position 2 (brown lead): 12V w/switch in every position except OFF
Connector position 3 (2 yellow leads): 12V in every position, incl OFF
Connector position 4 (2 yellow/blue stripe leads): no voltage in any position except the "pull to wash position," then 12V
Connector position 5 (red lead): no voltage in any position except intermittent wipe position, then 12V
Connector position 6 (white lead): 12V in every position except OFF

So it looks to me like I've got an open (one or more?) in the harness between the switch and motor.

Am I on the right track? I'm on the verge of just taking it to the shop ... but will wait on manual. Thanks again.
