you could try jumping accross the silinoid to see if the winch rotates or dissconnect the winch itself and use a set of jumper cables to check it. doesn't matter which way you hook the cables up on the winch, one way will be forward and the other will be reverse.

you will have to tear down the winch itself and check for damages. could of got water or mud in it and clogged the brushes or burnt them out.
