Start by checking your fuses. Then put your ear against the wiper arm and have a friend turn it on. if you hear humming then the motor is bad and needs to be replaced. If all else fails check for voltage at the motor. there should be 3 wiree. One will have voltage all the time with the key on, one should be switched voltage and the last will be ground.
there is a fuse panel inside the car usually near the driver area, check the knee bolster (below steering wheel) close to the driver door, also check the side of the dash where the driver door closes.
the switch is in fact the earth when you select reverse it gronds the wire, so to test take lead off and earth it, there will be a contant live to the bulb with the ignition on, if when earthed the light works the fault is with the switch, which could be an adjustment problem, or a defective switch. if does not work when earthed check the live to the bulb then check fuse
