make sure its the motor only...not the glass
you may want to cover the open window with a blanket of something to keep the heat in and warm the motor up a little. when really cold the grease can thicken up making the motor work harder and not be strong enough to move the window

Turned out to be a wiring issue. Took off door panel and tried switch to see if anything obvious and it worked. Re-installed panel and still all works.
