Wiper switch/motor troubleshoot? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

This may seem really lame, but how can I troubleshoot my wiper switch and/or motor to see which ones broken so I can replace accordingly? I've checked the fuse and it's good, but I get nothing when sliding the switch. It's a 1981 GMC, and the switch moves horizontally to 3 or 4 positions and the switch itself is round with an arrow that rotates clockwise. The wipers didn't work when I bought the truck and I'm just getting around to fixing it now. Where can I start?
