What are two reasons for motor failure?

Assuming you mean electric motors, the causes for failure include seized bearings and worn brushes. If the bearings or bushings are seized, the motor may fail. Most electric fans have thermal fuses, so if the motor seizes and overheats, the fuse blows. If the brushes are worn, then the motor is no receiving electricity and thus cannot turn.

Why won't a Power window roll down or up?

the brushes in the motor are worn. If you are handy, some auto parts stores sell brushes that will fit the motor.

I had an old drill I sacrificed and removed the brushes and did it for the cost of an obsolete drill.
