The step motor functions similar to most car window motors that stop when a higher than normal operating current is sensed. That design enables them to stop if they try to open against a sidewalk of closed when something is limiting full movement. As an example, they don't move far if you are standing on them. The controller senses the high current and stops the power to the motor. Also the next operation is the reverse function. If the fuse is weak, it's possible for the fuse to blow before the controller shuts it off.
For me. if the light comes on the motor has power. If the light doesn't come on the you usually have a power problem.
