    Hi All.

    I am using 2 wiper motors so i have followed the tutorial on ground isolation provided by @bsft.
    I checked multiple points and I don't have any buzzing sounds. However my wiper motors have 6 pin outputs.
    2 of these pins are connected to the body.

    Should I just leave these unconnected. Or should I connected them to neutral of the power supply?
    Thanks for your help!

    Hi @Marxman

    If these two cables are attached to the motor body, do not connect them.
