So you thought you would dig another hole, then fill it in to keep anyone from following?
If the motor works, then connect the mechanism. There, happy?

I tested the motor with leads to ensure it was good.
I'm assuming it's fuse related. In info on fuse locations greatly appreciated.

Look on your fuse box covers, could be a circuit breaker

Thor MC Pant 750 puts everything in the front cap that is electrically powered that is not Ford MC supplied (except the radio and power ports) in the fuse and CB circuit board down by the driver's left foot. That board is powered from the chassis battery through a 100 amp CB mounted just behind the battery on the right frame rail. That is why everything works with the master power switch off when traveling.

So apologies, but I read your problem differently. With more information I get, I now understand it does not work with the wiper control lever? So the washer also does not work with the lever?

Also, here is a recall, but this may be a motor failure???? From this thread.


EDIT: Hard to find online exactly where your fuse boxes are, but have you looked in the Ford owners manual? It should have the two(?) locations of the fuse boxes. Also note that the wiper motor is run by a relay, also in one of the fuse boxes (under the hood is my guess).

I also thought from your post that the wiper motor and washer were working Ok and was thinking a linkage issue possibly. But now we know you are looking for the fuse? On my 2013 ACE 30.1 it is fuse #11 (30amp) located in the fuse panel beside the driver's left foot area. No external relay listed in my fuse record for the wiper/washer system, but your coach may be totally different. Good luck contorting into position to check that fuse panel. It helps to be 25 and skinny.

Found the problem.
In fuse panel outside, the upper red wire was not making contact with fuse box. Corrected problem, working fine now.
