3 prong terminal board
i found out that my terminal board had been broken off my wiper motor when the engine had been reinstalled now finding one is proving fruitless. does anyone know where to buy one. i tried ac delco , a1 cardone and rock auto. no luck yet. thought about taking one off some old gm car , but im unsure. then wiring will be another issue.
thanks, tom

Try contempory corvette or possibly Pipers. Beware the corvette tax is gonna apply for a hard to find part like this.

I'd imagine you pay about as much for the terminal board as that new wiper motor you mentioned in your other post.
I just took this one apart and it looks like only one wire to splice if you replaced the whole assembly instead of messing with those 3 tiny wires.

flyinfree,dz rick, thanks for the info, ill check these sites and see what i come up with. i also considered a new motor verses the terminal board, but id like to keep it original as possible. and if i do get a new motor will the wiring be different colors, then which wire goes to where? im still waiting on willcoxs reply to avalability and wiring. plus i dont know if autozones motor is truly a correctly wired motor. with no return.at least im getting closer to an end. i found a site the other day you might like,for wipers etc.its:

I'll take closeup pictures to show you where each wire terminates.
Don't worry about your thread getting old, some threads go on for pages before the project is finished.

I hope these pictures help but if you need any others just ask.
Both ends of the little red wire circled in these 2 pictures.
This is the only one from the 3 prong terminal that goes into the motor.
What ever you buy be sure this is not broken.
