It doesn't turn unless I encourage it by pulling the belt slightly. I initially thought it wasn't getting enough power, but I've replaced the batteries with brand new ones 3 times so I don't think that's the problem. Not sure what else it could be though.
From another thread posted last week... http://stereo2go.org/forums/threads/motor-not-working-on-a-wm-3-rebranded-tps-l2.706/
Chris.. before looking for a new motor, try to ascertain if the motor is able to be worked back into life. Careful lubrication and a bit of persistence could prove enough to get the motor back in running order. Any thread that covers the TPSL2 and wm3 motors all have similar success stories, mine included. My wm3 motor was jammed solid, but a careful lube and giving it time to work in, all the while working the motor paid back in dividends. It's as good as new. With regards to a new motor, it never hurts to have spares ;-) What's the motor number? Is it the 1600? If so, there is a guy in Israel with a supply but your looking at £70 plus
Would I need to use sewing oil for the lubrication? and do I only need to lubricate the top? Not sure what the motor is, but due to its similarity with the WM-4, I'd say it's a DNE-5600A Thanks
