It's been a while since I have dealt with these. There is usually an off switch located along the swing bar check to make sure it is in the on position and that the switch itself hasn't been disconnected. Double check to be sure the swing is level and the safety isn't stopping it from working.
You'll probably need to replace the motor in the swing. Most of these types of swings work off a motor with a plastic gear attached, and the inside of the gear gets worn down over time. The motor still gets power and still turns the gear, but the gear doesn't have the grip that it used to so the swing doesn't move as much (especially with a baby in it).
It's likely the motor gone bad. The contacts inside the motor can get burnt out and prevent the motor from turning. Did you buy the swing brand new, or was it used? If you bought it new you should return it for a refund.
I had the exact same problem the motor worked fine but when we took it apart the gear inside was stripped. i hate saying it but best thing you can do is buy a new swing. i personally recommend http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3420749&camp=PPC%3A204318389. its a little bit high but so worth the money. my 8mo old baby girl loves it. it also has a AC adapter so no more batteries and an ipod hook up as well so you can pick what music you want your baby to listen to. best of luck.
