Any chance you just replaced the wiper motor and forgot to connect the wires all the way or replace a ground wire ? Could your problem be the dash or column switch for the washer pump/wiper mechanism and not the wiper motor or washer pump at all ? Find a way to test the operating switch as well (electrical test light or test probe).
