Evo 8 rear wiper stopped working...

My rear wiper stopped working in the snow...it got stuck like it couldnt push enough snow from the rear windshield while it was halfway in the cycle. I parked and went inside. The next morning it was back in the normal position but never turned on again. It wouldnt move but the rear sprayer still works...i checked the wires and they all seemed to be plugged in..did the motor burn out? anyone else experience this?

Did you check your fuse? Why are you trying to run wipers with that much snow on the windows? That's what happens.
