1967 GTX, finishing up a restoration on it. Having an issue with the wiring. My windshield wiper motor is not working properly, it will turn on but not park or shut off correctly, I have to almost get the knob in half way between settings to shut off. It is a 915 variable motor that was restored. I am actually getting a shock sitting on the sill plate when I use the switch. All other wiring on the car works properly. I did have the battery negative grounded to the battery tray when I was putting the wiring in, but as mentioned everything seems fine, lights, fan blinkers etc. Battery negative now grounded to engine block and I noticed unless I run a jumper from the negative on the battery to the body of the car I get no power to the car anywhere. That doesn't seem right to me? I plugged a different 915 wiper motor in the bulk head and it works improperly like the one in the car, shock and all. Any help appreciated.

running up my post count some more .

ok, that settles the shock from the switch as I have it just hanging down, I'll put it back in and check.
