Re: Hot motor!
Hi Phidom, Thanks for the reply.
I thought that might be the case 😥
I did drop the motor and measured the armature (through the brushes) and got about 3 ohms. Also noticed that the enamel on the external windings (for the electromagnet?) looked like it had melted in places.
Time to see if I can find another motor or, more likely, a new machine!
