Sounds like the rear gate switch may have failed or disconnected. Either will cause your problem. The wiper is shut down if the gate ajar light comes on to prevent damage to the wiper. To get to the switch you have to pull the trim panel inside the lower rear hatch. You will find the switch attached to the side of the rear glass latch.
