    Thanks for your reply, just as well I ordered some new ones base on what you said! Is there a way to determine the RPM and other identifying information on one of these from the internals when it's broken? Different RPMs are going to change the speed of the projector lights, or in the case of a...

    I've got a couple of things to fix where the motor seems to be the problem. I don't understand what could be broken in this assembly? Does the circular magnet wear down over time and need replacement? If so, where can I get one?

    Thanks for your reply. I removed the motor from the gear housing and it spins freely when I turn it, but when I use a 3v cell button battery it does nothing. It looks like the motor from a CD/DVD but in my experience those don't usually have cables coming out of them, they connect using...
