OK, here is an update!
I pull the motor back off the steps,(easier the second time).
My motor has 4 screws holding it all together.
I took the motor apart, the brushes look good but discolored.
I cleaned the brushes & the armature using light sandpaper.
I also sprayed it with electrical parts cleaner.
I re-installed all the parts and put the motor back on the steps.
It all works great at this time, I am happy!
I did call the parts houses to see if I can get a new motor.
They do not stock them but they can be ordered and cost is around $50.
