What are these wires?

[brooksman9]

Wipers worked before but do not now. 86 with intermittent wipers from what I can tell. Is the first plug part of the wipers or cruise control and where does it plug in? Also, what is the second one? And where does it go?

The 1st plug is cruise. No idea on the 2nd, but a free bump !

Better pic of the second. Where does the cruise plug in?

That other connector looks funny, but, I think it's your answer. This pic is from the internet and a 3rd Gen Camaro but same idea.

I thought everything for the wipers was in the harness that's connected to each side of that intermittent switch with the heat sink fins (below the connector in question).

The plug (cruise control lever) in the first picture plugs into the second socket (cruise control harness) in the second picture. Neither has anything to do with the wipers.

Ok. Cool. Thanks for the help. I think i did find the issue on the wipers though. No ground at the motor connector. I cam meter from that plug to another ground and read voltage but not to the ground in the plug. Which makes sense as I know I saw them work before when I first started tearing the truck apart awhile ago. I'll have to track that down later.

So, plugged the cruz in. Doubt it works and not that Id ever use it anyway. I did find the issue with my wipers though which was what I was trying to do anyway. Seems as though the ribbon cable up the column has a bad connection. I can make it work by wiggling it around a little bit. Good enough for now. Not fixing to rebuild the column. I did go ahead and remove the intermittent module as that part did not work. A little less congested under the column. Thanks for all the help and maybe it will help someone else down the road.
