You need to probe the power wire at the motor to see if it is getting power. Wires tend to break inside the insulation, so it takes a little more than a visual look over to identify the problem. So if you aren't getting power keep back probing till you do have power, and there you have it.

Or even a more simple option turn the wiper on, open the hatch and wiggle the **** out of the wires look for any movement. You found the location of your problem.
