Not sure if this applies for all models but this was the procedure for replacing a 2001 (y reg) megane (not scenic) wiper motor which burnt out. It is VERY easy. [Additional note 2010: Have used notes below to do successfully. Grafted a 'P' reg version on to a '51' plate. My '51' version had four wires and a shorter motor body, the older version had five wires but colour coding allows you to connect correct four - I used a 'choc' connectors. All functions work after fitting]

Remove the plastic cover over the battery at the bottom of the windscreen if battery not fitted in engine compartment. Two small screws at one end and one in the centre, then pull it out while sliding it a little to the centre. Its only held in by plastic clips so dont be shy.

Disconnect positive and negative wires then remove the battery (removal not required if battery in main engine compartment but still disconnect), this gets you access to the motor. (13mm positive terminal nut, 8mm negative, 6mm battery securing bolt)

Unplug the motor connector.

Make a point of noting the orientation of the brass coloured metal arm which attaches on to the shaft of the pump so it can go back on roughly in the same place. Standing at the bumper looking at mine it was pointing at approximately 4 o'clock.

Unscrew the nut (13mm) on the shaft (hold the arm to stop it moving while you turn the spanner, this can be done with securing the arm with an adjustable wrench). Pull the brass arm off and move it to one side to give you access to the 3 pump housing bolts (10mm). Mine rotated around a bit while unscrewing the nut. Not a problem so long as you remember which direction the arm needs to be turned back to on refitting.

Remove the housing bolts and the motor can be removed.

Putting it back in is the reverse. Check the connectors are the same for the new and replacement pumps as there are several different types with different metal contacts.
