    if you have a simple 2 dollar test light, work the switch and poke the end of the plug. if it lights up you have power.

    if its got no power its time to trace it back and look for some damage to the wires or the plug end.

    Hey Scottydoggs,

    Thanks for the feedback. What I ended up doing was taking the motor from the old assembly (because I knew that the motor was still good) and using that as a test piece. It worked...and when I switched back to the new assembly it did not work. I'm concluding that the new motor is bad. Unfortunately the assemblies are different enough that I can't use the old motor with the new assembly. I'll have to try and get a refund for the new one I bought on e-bay.

    Thanks again!
