If your gears in the motor itself had ground themselves up, you'd hear a whining noise (my passenger motor). Make sure you check the wiring its self. My driver's side wires had split when the motor slipped on the driver side recently.

What you can do is disconnect the motor the wire for the motor and get a tester like the voltage meter tester, and put in on the connection for where the motor attached to and see what it does, if nothing reading then there no power if its getting power then its your motor, so you have to drill 2 holes to get to the screws are at to take off the motor theres a total of 3 screws holding on the motor i believe. There should be 2 in dents where you will have to drive the holes.
