Does the pump have seals to keep wiper fluid out of its' electrical parts?

If you install a relay, it could also carry power to any number of OEM
accessories. Radio, horn, kitchen light....

Heh heh.

A little knowledge is a bad thing in my hands.

Test at motor connections with a new  -   lead  and  +   straight from 30?
