Ok...

Recently in the Dodge.. apparently my windshield wipers somehow a wire short circuited somewhere... I think its because i attached a wire into my fusebox that was grounded (OOOPPPS)

anyhow going to my windshield wiper motor their are a couple wires... One is an obvious ground and the other two look like power wires...

on the left its white and on the right black...

I am assuming White is pos and Black is Neg... Any thoughts?

Ground is everything on the car so one is probably hot and one is switched.

So you know what you got to do right?

Break out the DMM and start measuring

Assume absolutely NOTHING in car wiring. Test everything!
