Correct.  It comes directly off of the wiper fuse.

It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!

My kwikwire kit is suppling power to the wiper switch, do you split off of this wire and catch washer sol., and the wiper motor, since not using old fuse block

Did your kit come with instructions and tips?

The OEM didn't supply power to the wiper switch.  Power fed directly to the wiper motor and w/washer.  The dash switch just controlled the ground connection.  Are you sure that what you think is power to the switch isn't just the ungrounded return from the wiper motor?
