Why is my rear window not working?

I have a 99 limited runner. I'm new to this forum and not a fabulous mechanic but can do most things. My back window will no longer roll up/down. It's not a fuse I have already checked that. It acts like it's not getting enough power or the motor is dying. How can I narrow down the problem without having to tear apart the back hatch. If that is needed how do I get the panel off? Thanks

I took mine apart yesterday and it is quite easy. The plastic panel just pops off. I would start by prying gently at the bottom and then just work your way around popping the pins loose. Once the panel is off all you need is a 10mm to take it all apart.
 
not meaning to insult you at all, but make sure your window lock button isn't on! I ran into this situation a few years back, and freaked out, then looked on the forum and someone also suggested this and ha it solved my problems. I'm sure you checked, but just incase!

I have to admit to getting fooled by this one as well. :doh:
I was mad as hell when I thought my rear window was jacked, because I use it all the time. Then when I went out to drive it the next time I hit the button on the fob out of habit and it went right down. That's when it hit me.
