Bummer deal! Some wipers have 4 places to check to see if its an electrical problem. Check the fuse box. It contains postage stamp size fuses. Check your glove box manual for the wipers specific fuse location. Pull it out to look for a break or burn on the part that melts, and it looks like a S in the window on the fuse. A electrical device tool that connects to ground by clip to any metal - and the other ice pick end touches a spot on fuse, is the common way made to check current flow to check fuses. A light on the tool electrical checker will lite if both sides of the fuse lites the light. If good that shows so.
The other is a solenoid, usually under the hood in a electrical box - so stated. You can switch the wiper solenoid with another to see if its bad. if bad the switch of solenoids will allow the wipers to work.
The actual switch at the steering column many go bad as well as the motor. A mechic needs to do these and other checks if you can't. Hope these tips works. .
