Pull the connector off at the wiper motor, and see if you have power there, with key on and wiper switch on.. If you have power there, either the motor is not working or the ground for the motor is not good.
I guess these older cars had relays for this? Or maybe just a fuse, like 30 amp?
I don't know, if it's a common problem, you may have to find out through an old car guy, like a retired cadillac mechanic. Or, I'm sure there must be an enthusiast's forum for older cadillacs, if you google cadillac.
Good luck.

have a mechanic check your ignition timing first. this includes timing in the crankshaft, camshaft, and distributor.

cylinder misfires are commonly caused by wrong ignition timing, faulty spark plugs, and / or faulty high tension wires

I have a 1994 Chevy extended cab 4WD 1500 pickup with an intermittent problem with the windshield wipers. Sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. A friend of mine told me that he had a similar...

I have experienced this problem with 80's and90's chevy trucks especially with the Delay part of the wipers. Almost always it has been a dirty or corroded connection At the wiper motor. Unplug the motor and check the connections at all plugs. They Should be clean and make a tight connection. This usually solves the problem. Once the connection is cleaned use a little dielectric grease or wd40 on the connections When reconnecting. Let me know if that works for ya.
