Trying to bench check the windshield wiper motor on my MGB. Cannot find a chart that shows what each prong goes to. Have checked in Haynes and Bentley. Shows wiring chart, but not what functions each prong has. Does anyone have any instructions? Column switch has power at green wire. Novice at this. Thanks

Have you checked the wiring diagram for your car?

When diagnosing issues related to running and stalling, always check to see if you have gas in the tank first.
