    Funny one today - serviced my AUG, closed it up and tested, grand for about 30 cycles then nothing. Thought the mosfet was fried at first but upon inspection it seems the motor is completely siezed. Can't turn it by hand. This motor was cleaned a couple of thousand cycles ago too. Any ideas? There's not a whole pile online there regarding this as far as I can see...

    If it was me i just slap a new motor into it and be done.U could spend alot of time trying to fix it only for it to give up again and maybe this time when out gaming.There not built to last.Yes u can clean them to give them a bit of extra life but thats about it.
