It is more than likely in the switch on your steering column. Those tend to go bad every once and while. What you can do to test and see if it is the motor or the switch is sending a jumper wire from the negative and positive side of the battery to the applicable polarities on the motor. If the motor works then it is more than likely the switch. Also, just to start things out I would double check that the fuse hasn't blown for that circuit.

1; Remove the Wiper Arms, Turn the switch On, Do the wiper Shafts Move? Linkage Loose or Springs on Wiper Arms to Strong, Blades are Bad!
2; Is there Power to the Motors? Check Fuse and Wiring!

Since you know that the motor is good now, it could be the fuse or the switch, or even a broken wire.
Until you can get it fixed, try a product called RAIN-X. A lot of street rodders use it, if they don't have windshield wipers on their rods. The water will bead away as long as you are at speed.
Don't delay on this repair too long, it is dangerous, if you can't find the problem then take it to a shop and have it fixed.
good luck.

Could be a fuse, or something electrical. Check up in your manual for fuses in that area ..
