take the motor out, remove the plastic cover from the rear and there is a metal contact disc. It will either be worn, rusty or dirty.

You can sometimes save them with some abrasive paper if they're not too badly corroded, otherwise it's another motor you're after.

There's a great guide for this in the articles section too!

If you are unlucky.
usually it's hardened grease that stops the contacts making properly, but that doesn't fit with the current weather.
