Double check all the fuses, in the car, and under the hood (bonnett?)
It should be fairly easy to get to the rear wiper motor. Disconnect it, and with a test light or voltmeter check the plug for power, while the rear wiper switch is turned on.
If there is power, than you have a faulty motor. If there is not any power, then there is another electrical problem, which could really be anywhere.

Not sure about the F2, but on my Elantra there is a bin next to the steering wheel that opens and closes. If you pull the whole bin out, the passenger compartment fuse block is behind that. There should be a fuse map on the back of the bin.
