Wipers stopped working

My wipers on my 03 e320 got left in the up position after turning the car off. I pushed them down. Now they won't work. Did my motor die in the up position or has something else happened? I'm looking for advice on how to attack the symptoms to ID the problem. I checked the fuse and it's good. Thanks in advance for the help.

Check the nuts on the arms. If they loosed then the wipers won't work. Happened to me once when I turned the car on and they automatically came on even though the windshield was iced over. I tightened up the bolts and they worked again. You lift up the covers on the bottom on the arms.
