Hi,
The motor runs of your main 12V system - not directly from the alternator. Assuming some resistance in the wiring harness, I'd say that 11.5V is okay and enough to run your motor.
What exactly is the problem? Does the motor only go at one speed?
Also, if you're trying another motor and getting the same result, I'd guess the problem is with your switch.
You will have three connection combinations, namely OFF, 1st Step (lo speed) and 2nd Step (hi speed).
In the OFF position; Pins 1 & 2 should be conencted to each other, Pin 6 connects to the body earth (ground), Pin 3 and Pin 5 are connected.
In the 1st Step (lo speed) position; Pin 4 should connect to Pin 1 and Pin 2, Pin 6 connects to body earth
In the 2nd Step (hi speed) position; Pin 4 should connect to Pin 2, Pin 6 connects to body earth.
So, Pin 6 should always be ground and pin 4 should be your live 12VDC pin. The remaining pins go to the coils on your wiper motor.
