2001 Sequoia Rear Window cold weather issue

So i've got a 2001 toyota Sequoia that I bought used during the summer (about five months ago) and it's treated me very well ever since. However, I live in Anchorage Alaska, and it hasn't really gotten above 15 degrees for the past month, so it's sat outside and been very cold.

Anyway, I was sitting in the driveway after driving home talking to my girlfriend, and i bump the rear window control switch. The back window opens, my car gets really cold, and I try to roll it back up, but it won't budge. All i hear is the slight sound of the motor going "urk", and thats it.

Pretty new to car maintenance and car forums, any advice?

The window could have came off track, or the motor disconnected from the guides. Or the motor could not be getting enough power due to a split/cracked/grounding wire, or who knows. I would say take the door skin off and check around for anything obvious.
