Exclamation Front wiper motor problems

My wipers for the front windshield don't work anymore, the rear one works but not the front ones. The problem started a long time ago when the wipers wouldn't stop, I just unplugged the motor to stop them. This problem fixed itself or so i thought. I recently took out my guage pod to recalibrate my gas needle. I remember when I was removing the guage hood I hit the **** and the wipers came on so I moved the **** to the off position again. Once I put everything back in place I tested everything to make it worked....loe and behold the ******* front wipers don't work but the rear do. I don't even hear the sqirter motor working for the front!!!! I posted the problem on the forum and searched. I've changed out the wiper motor and still doesn't work...my last hope is this

My only problem is I don't know which wire is the ground for the motor and can't seem to find a diagram that explains which one it is. Someone please help me with this before I go completely loco on my damn wipers and chuck the bitch in the lake....(its the small problems that frustrate you the most)

Thanks in advance

If you do not have the headlight cleaner the plug to the motor has 5 wires on a 6 wire plug . The colors are black,,blue and white,,blue and black,, blue and green ,, blue and yellow . The black wire is the motor ground .
