    Motor buzzing but not rotating

    Hey,I've made the connections as in my scheme but motor seems to buzz but not actually rotate when I switch it on.
    And when I try to move it step by step it just produces click sound but doesn't actually move.
    Any suggestions?

    Power off, swap motor wires, power on... repeat...
