Default Windshield wiper wiring

Good evening all,
I have an 82 that I need to wire the windshield wipers/washer from scratch. I don’t need intermittent, just low high and off/park. I have the switch with connectors, and motor. No modules or factory relays. Can someone help me build a circuit that would make that work? Thanks in advance

Here you go-

You'll need a DPDT 3 position switch (ON-ON-ON)

Most of the rotary wiper switches I have seen will not accommodate the park function...

Here's a rocker switch that'll work-

The pic of the motor is 69-72- later wipers will not have a constant hot-












Here's how to wire the rocker switch-
