UPDATE: the motor is working again. I soldered the broken top housing (and brush) in relative place and (after some efforts to keep the brushes in place) replaced the cap. Not sure I would ride with it in the current condition (certainly not without a fuse!), but the motor is functional...

UPDATE: motor cap removed. The first spring at the top of the picture was intact, the second had been ground into the motor; small pieces were around the casing. But the real problem was the physical short which occurred...

Hi Ann M., thanks very much. This is an IZIP-KIT1 with 24V lead-acid. Note that I've shorted the fuse on the SLA for testing, since it kept blowing, and am applying current directly to the engine leads for testing. The motor does turn in both directions but there seems to be an unusual...

Hi all, first time poster, please redirect if appropriate. I have a Currie conversion kit motor that seemed to stop working yesterday (blown fuse). After isolating access to the circuit powering the motor, it seems to have a short-- protected current blows a fuse, direct current without...
