I found the problem to be that one of the fixed permanent magnets in the motor had come loose and moved.
Mike, are you saying that with the loose magnet it would still work with 12v applied directly to the motor like the OPs situation? I would think that with an out of place magnet it wouldn't work at all.
No. It would not work. I started shopping for a replacement gearmotor and couldn't find one. I opened up the motor, out of desperation and found the magnet loose. It was apparently installed with epoxy and I just moved it back in place and reattached it with epoxy.
