Right, and just to be clear, the motor must be separated from the car circuit, either at the screws in the terminal in the door, or as Jim suggested, pull the switch in the console. You must connect both+12v and a negative to test the motor one way. Then flip + and - and test the other direction.

Did you make sure that the wires you used to carry the 12 volts to the screws were actually carrying 12 volts. Don't ask, had that happen before. Did you try applying the wires in both orientations? Applied one way, the motor will turn in one direction. Switch the wires around and the motor should turn in the other direction.

And if applying power at the switch does not make the motor run, then one might wish to apply power at the motor before tearing the works out (if possible) to ensure it is not just broken wires in the area where the door opens and closes.
