I recently purchased a 1972 Buick Skylark for my daughter who also wanted an older car.

the person I purchased it from was in the midst of installing a new wiper motor when he had a heart attack. he moved away and left his car for sale.

he had partially wired the wiper motor, left one wire off that I think went to the wiper motor and then a two pronged brown wire that I think goes to the washer mechanism which he had not mounted yet.

can anyone look at this and tell me if it is wired correctly. I wanted to check prior to checking the wiper switch, as if it is wired wrong, the switch won't be telling me much. Thank you for any help anyone can give me.

I would try only 1 of the two items( wires) at a time, and see what happens.
can only be 1 live and 1 grounded interrupted by the switch. try to wire temporary direct to power and then test switch with a meter on resistance.

It probably is correct (2013 post though) looking at terminal strip config., different size terminals to prevent mixup; appears a wire was cut off (frayed copper strands?) from black cable on left of photo? My observation only.
