broken 4v motor

[LegoPanda]

Hey,

I have this old lego 4v motor from when technic was just a new thing, the only problem is that it stopped working a while back, when I plug it in it still vibrates but the axle doesn't turn over. Does anyone know if this can be fixed and how?

Thanks in advance,

Try Bricklink for a replacement.

Or don't - what would you do with a triple C cell battery pack nowadays? People don't want to chase a small slow model with a leash anymore.

At this point you may as well pull yours apart and see what's inside. Maybe something jumped out of place, but also maybe something busted.

I also have 2 buggy motors which can go forward but it wouldn't go in reverse. I've tried controlling it with Sbricks, Ir remote controls and even with direct power from the battery pack but it doesn't seems to work out. Anyone can help? I don't think i'll be able to replace the motors since they are so valuable
