My guess is to first trace the wire am make sure it is properly plugged into the board.

All the connections are made and tight. I'm thinking that the motor possibly died

That's possible but unlikely.  plug it into one of the other axis stepper drivers and tell that axis to move.  If the motor turns then your problem is elsewhere.
