Either your power window motor has crapped out or it's just the switch contacts. You'll have to take off the interior panels to access both, so try flicking the switch back and forth and to see if it's just dirty contacts.

Now take 2 leads from a 12V battery and run them to the two prongs (deosn't matter which side to which). The window should go up or down. If it does, you know the motor's ok and it's most likely the switch or wiring.
