Have you got your owners manual?? Not a repair manual, but the manual you get in the glove box when you buy a car. Look in it. It should give you the location of your fuse panel, and even pinpoint the exact fuse that controls the wiper motor. I definitely sounds to me like you simply blew a fuse. Keep your fingers crossed, find the fuse, then buy a snow brush.

Check the fuse first. It should be a large silver rectangular shaped one. The wipers are the only thing (on my car) that is run by that fuse. If that doesn't work then try the motor.
