What do I check on the blower motor?

My car has no glove box. There are some screws behind a little panel on the front of the knee bolster and a couple of screws and a plastic clip underneath the air bag.

I have the blower motor out now.

It looks fine. The brushes are not worn all the way down, but they do have some wear.

There seems to be some resistance in turning the motor. It doesn't seem to turn as freely as it should, but I don't know what normal is.

Maybe I should replace the motor. Is there some way to test if the bearings are OK?
