What you have is a hung brush, to remedy this simply pull on each shunt and let the brush snap back into place.:cool:

replace the brushes as they might have gotten too short but i think its unlikely for yours.

also make sure the the spring is not pressing on the shunt

ive had brushes hang in a stock motor after 2 runs. the shunt must be able to move freely and not stop the brush from moving in the hoods.

if a brush hangs, chuck em and put new ones in
