Is this old tech, should i replace them.
I checked the wiring and it looks fine but ill keep looking.

Thanks for great quick feedback.
Yes that is brushed, the hood will look like this:

first try pulling on the wires that go to the brushes and see if they move freely, you can also remove the spring and see if they are worn to nothing, when they get about 1/4 of the size pictured the springs have trouble pushing them hard enough to make contact with the comm.
