Default Wipers Not working

I know this may of been answered somewhere on the forums but i havent found the answer and i really need my wipers working again

I have a 2000 Cherokee Sport

Wipers and the washer squirters both dont work

I replaced the Column arm peice cause i thaught that could be the issue and it did not fix the problem

anyone on here know why my front wipers dont work???

what else do i check

There are two washer motors. (one for the front,one for the rear. They are located on the inner fender panel behind the driver headlight. They are about $12.00 each I believe.
