I have checked the plate and rotating wheel assembly underneath it and they're fine. The black spindle that connects to the motor underneath rotates when I turn it - it sounds like the motor is winding when I move the spindle. What could be the problem?

You need to see if it is getting the power to it and if it is , the motor must be bad or binding somehow. I have seen a couple where they got power and just needed to be taken out and re-installed and then they worked fine. If there is no power then the issue is on the board side.
