This 1956 M3 is my first hammond and I've had it for a couple weeks. It was pretty well frozen up when I got it, but a few days after oiling and rotating the TG spindle I got it working pretty well.
Unfortunately after a few days of playing well, the RUN motor stopped motivating after releasing the START motor and would gradually slow to a stop. I tested my weak RUN motor and it is clear that one of the coils is open. I have ordered a replacement motor but can't seem to find a video or 'step by step' explanation of how one goes about doing the replacement. Any and all advice would be very helpful to this Hammond newbie- please and thanks!
P.S. are there parts available to refurbish the damaged motor... I wouldn't mind keeping a working spare in case I have a problem in the future.
