the best thing i can say for the wiper is take tha hatch apart and put 12 volts to the wiper motor and see if the wiper is working.

i've never had both the defroster and wiper quit

There is a harness running down the right side rear pillar. It has a plug on it down by the tail light acceses door. Pull the little door off and reach up you will feel the plug. Make sure it is connected.

When these strange things happen, I always check for bad grounds.

its more like a bad source, considering its only getting power when the rear defroster is on. But i don't know any of the wires back there.
