Have you taken yours apart yet? You should first remove your failed motor and take the face of it off to see if it is just the rollers. That is the most common failure, the rollers break up and fall apart. The motor actually works, but you can't tell because it won't spin the gear. Most autoparts stores sell motor bushings that you can easily swap in for a few dollars.
