Default 2007 1500 Wipers intermittant???

My 07 1500 seems to have a wiper gremlin. The wipers do NOTHING but then randomly you can try to turn them on and they will work again and be fine untill you shut the truck off for awhile. I only drive the truck about 1 time a week and it is usually around -20 here. Im kinda thinking that it is the cold doing it...however, i only started seeing this problem about a month ago and it has been very cold here for 4 or 5 months now.

When you try to turn them on you dont hear the motor or relay or anything try to work....

Any ideas what could cause the wiper motors to do this.

Thanks for any help

i had a similar problem on a blazer, there was a recall because water would get into the wiper controller.
