well, without knowing what circuit that is I can't tell. You need to get ahold of a service manual to help you. Does the blower motor work or the heater just not blow hot? more than likely the washers are failing from a separate problem. where is this ground wire at and what does it look like?

The heater blower motor has a ground wire connection at the upper left corner of the blower housing (as viewed from the front). the opposite end of this ground wire connects to the chassis at the firewall, behind the right cylinder head (along with a lot of other engine grounds).

definitely, this needs to be connected to ground but it won't have any affect on the washers.
