You can trigger the motor with a battery directly, so could try doing that?

live and earth directly on the terminals at the motor will go one way and reverse the wiring makes it go the other.

or put a test lamp or multimeter on the wiring plug and pressing the switch will illuminate the bulb or show 12v showing the wiring is fine and the motors at fault.
