Looked at your VIN and regrettably with you advising you hear the motor,but dosen't turn indicates that the stalk and fuses\relay are good---the fault lies with the motor.

The motor is tricky to install correctly therefore make sure you choose wisely on a gent to do the work!!

Thanks anyway

It was the wiper linkage not the motor.
