82 Econoline e100 wiper issue

I'm working on our Big Girl, an 82 Econoline 4.9 I6 C4 transThe wipers have up and quit. I've checked the harness, and replaced the switch with an NOS part. The motor checks out as good. I'm suspecting the park switch. I REALLY need a wiring diagram for the wipers so I can troubleshoot the switch before pulling the wiper motor out.

If anyone can spare a moment to post one up, I'd be very appreciative

Thanks in advance

Well I found these in my files for a 1981 Econoline. I would bet that the 1982 is the same.
Here is a 1982 EVTM tailored to your 1982 econoline. $12.95 and free shipping (Ford Electrical Vacuum Troubleshooting Manual)

Park switch is part of the wiper motor
You will need to replace it (the wiper motor)
Try adding a ground wire first and see if it starts working
Some of the older ones had a brass ground strap under one bolt to the wiper motor body that would fail
If intermittent wipers... ( switch moves left or CCW to go intermittent) replace the interval wiper governor. If they stop just anywhere check the ground then replace motor
