In my case the window needed to be all the way closed. Of course with my luck it was stuck open. Had to drill a hole in the door (luckily it was near the bottom and not really noticeable) for a socket to fit through. I had to take out the entire regulator/bracket too. Not half as hard as I initially thought it would be.

Took the motor apart and cleaned everything. Plugged it in and same results. Thankfully I didn't install it. Guess I will bite the bullet and get a replacement. Thanks for the help to those that responded.
