    Could just be a bad bearing, try disassembling it and running the motor free of the drivetrain to see if it is shot or if it's running then the prob is in the drive

    Once it's disassembled, take measurements of the motor (length X diameter X shaft size) to find a replacement or upgrade....

    This is 2 hawks insides one is my old 2 year old model with a dead maxon re-max 326770 motor but on there site the numbers dont match anything? The other motor works I just thought I would take it to bits to match the motor but alas it just black with no numbers? Anyone knows what I can replace the broken motor with? Machine builders?

    That is a voltage regulator and polarity fault board. If you replace it with a motor of the same size you will not need the board, but it may run better with it. If you reuse the board make sure to match the polarity on the motor, otherwise it will not work at all.
