Thank you

Not really. Even on a test bench, you would need to power it up to figure it out. You could test the motor connectors to check if they are shorted out but it won't tell you much other than it is shagged if they are shorted. It would not give a clean bill of health if they are not as it wouldn't tell you the rest of the circuit.

Sorry
