OMG what am i doing wrong!!help?

ok i am going nutz with my wiper motor, first when i got the car the wiper motor never worked so i went and tryed one from a v6 not the same size, then i got one from the scrap yard>that did not work just made a one tick sound when i turned it one. so i decided to be smart and buy a rebuilt motor and take it to a pro electrical car shop to get installed and it would only turn a bit, so i took it back. then i called a shop that only deals with thirdgens and got a used working (so they said) motor and that did not work just that same tick sound! so i took that motor and got the whole thing rebuilt and went right to the electrical shop, let me say i was not surprised that it was also BROKEN it would only turn a bit and the motor inside just spins (but they say they tested it). i have been trying to fix this for months but IT JUST WONT FIX and i am tired of hideing from rain lol.......
am i missing something here?????is there some special way to hook these up??? i never though i would ever have this much trouble with the wipers, i dont even want to get into how much money i spent on this.

also yes i no they need a good ground and make sure they are in park, i did not even hook the blades up ever i just looked for the thing to spin> so i no i did not brake anything. also i tryed testing it by hooking it up to the bat and ground also same thing.
so if u guys got any info that i am miss or if there is some trick PLEASE TELL ME.

thanks and sry for my bit(hin i am just getting really mad at this wiper issue.
