Default 61 wiper motor wiring HELP

Gentlemen,

I am building a mild custom 61 Bonneville. I have installed a 62 Chrysler "Astro Dome" dash and need to wire up the windshield wiper system. I want to use the Chrysler variable speed switch. What I need to know is what are the three wires coming from the wiper motor. Looks like I have a Brown/White/Purple wires coming from the motor.
The original harness (Rat Nest) is long gone. I can assume one wire is low speed and other is high speed ? I do read that the Pontiac switch grounds to turn on?
I have looked all over the internet for a wiring diagram and only find a bunch of advertising.
I am also using an aftermarket universal wiring harness. Anything would help here..

Also on the heater blower motor, I only see one wire, is this for power (+).

Thanks

From my 62 book which I would guess is like a 61 since the wire colors are the same. Brown is 12 volt in, white and purple are the hi / lo speed to the switch. I don't remember which is which now. You are right ... the switch is the ground source.

The heater blower only has the one wire. It's grounded at the motor frame to complete the circuit.
