Could be the switch itself or perhaps the wiper motor. Needs diagnosis to find the correct cause. Guessing here will not help you very much

Theres a switch that detects when the bonnet (hood) is open & cuts power to the wiper motor. On uk model it's located in the offside bonnet catch hole.
Worth spending a few minutes checking the contacts are good on the switch.
