likely its given up and its time to replace it depending on how hot it gets

Does it control the motor correctly as it's getting hot, or does not?

If it doesn't, try either unplugging/unsoldering your motor from it, or try a different motor.
Is it possible that motor got shorted internally or externally? Seized?

I might be that the battery connection is not soldered well. Make sure that positive and negative are not touching in the soldered end.
