Default Rear Wiper Motor

The wiper motor in my 99MY wagon seems to have packed up. Fuse is OK and it stopped after about a 1/4 sweep. I've posted for a second hand motor in the Wanted section

Motor or something else?

Ideas please before I part with my cash.

I few simple checks;
Is the 10mm nut that holds the wiper arm torque up correctly. (remove cap cover)
Remove wiper arm, check the motor spindle turns when wiper switch is activated.
Check both splines on wiper blade & spindle.
Check the motor with separate 12v feed.
Check the wiring loom inside the rubber cover grommets by the hinge mech of the tailgate. Sometimes the wiring can break from constant use of the tailgate?
