Quoted from MrMikeman:Gummed up motor from years of dried and dust filled lubrication. Take it apart and clean it.
I already did that, thats how i got the thing to start moving, the thing is perfectly clean.
Quoted from MrMikeman:You cleaned the brushes and commutator? Are you sure the the 2 brushes are making good contact with the armature/commutator? I had one that had issues on a Rock-Ola. With only 1 brush making good contact the motor was weak and pretty much useless. Also make sure the continuity from the brush to the outside connection is perfect.
I didn’t check any of that, i will take a look…
