When mine stopped working, it ended up being the switch itself.
I would check to see if you are getting power at the motor first.
Pull the connector off the motor. There are three wires in the plug. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong but, the Center one is ground, one of the other two (can't remember which) is constant 12v, the last one is only hot when the switch is engaged.
Turn ignition to on, Take your tester and put the black lead in the center and touch the red one to each one of the other wires, one at a time.
Once you figure out which one is hot (12v) all the time, turn the switch to the on position and test the remaining wire. If you do not have 12v then, you have a bad switch. At least that's how I checked mine.

Yeah that's fairly common, mine was in pieces internally as well. I bought one on Amazon and had it the next day.
