Two questions: 1) What is the Gear ratio of the included motors? 2) can i get a single motor to replace one that I have damaged?

I think the whole gear box is the problem here. Not sure replacing motor will fix your problem. eBay has similar motor with gear boxes try it.

The motors are 48 to1, Amazon sells a pair, look for :4.5VDC Gearhead Motor Pair I ditched these motors because they were not matched speed wise, the robot would not go in a straight line.I bought better quality motors, things worked fine. Motors from Pololu 1:70 more torque go better'

1:48 ratio, too fast IMO. Available on Ebay mainly. Don't pay much, Sparkfun sells the whole Magician kit for $15. http://www.ebay.com/itm/2PCS-DC-3v-6V-1-48-Gear-Motor-For-Robot-/171131410466?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash;=item27d83a1822

Sorry, I didn't post my entire results. I ended up replacing the DC motor for the bike twice. The second time was a charm. I now have two good control panels. I would recommend requesting the DC motor. It is not easy to replace, and there are no instructions included with it. I spent a bit of time fiddling with it to make the resistance appropriate.

Motor is made in China, my motor lasted only two years or so before a gear in the motor broke. You are unable to order motor parts, so I would need to spend $100+ to replace the entire unit. Motor is the weak link in the unit.

Not to kill a sell for amazon but if parts on your superwinch went bad call them. They have awesome customer service and will most likely send you what you need for repair at no charge, with no questions ask.

This ship as a water tight compartment, you need remove all parts on the top and open the compartment to replace the motor, but make sure it's motor problem before you go through all the trouble, usually motors don't have problems, if me I will check the remote first, this remote is pretty simple, it's just two on/off switches, make sure those connecters has good contact.

So far Schwinn has been very good about getting back to me, but not so good in fixing the problem. I have replaced the control panel, nearly all the wires and the dc motor. It still doesn't work, but they are still working with me. If either of you have any luck, please let me know via this post.Thanks

I replaced mine with the same one that was on it. After sitting during the winter when I tried to use it the motor didn't want to come on. I took it apart and cleaned it and now it works like new. Try to clean motor first before ordering a new one.

Authorized bissell repair center says that they have a lot of these little things in their shop, all under warranty, all with the motor having burnt in the first year... they are waiting on Bissell to send them a replacement...so I would say, no, if it's not under warranty it's not going to be worth servicing. If I had to do it over again, I would not have gotten this piece of crap.

Traxxas sent out a replacement driveshaft. Broke on first battery. Their suggestion was to upgrade the driveshafts to metal. The hobby shop took care of the motor and speed controller. If they hadn't I would've been out $100, half the cost of a new one through traxxas.

If you have broken parts there is no way to fix unless you have access to a machine shop and that wouldn't be worth the expense. Company is shut down and phone and email are off. Maybe someone purchased inventory and will sell parts?I gave mine away to someone who thought they would try to fix.

That requires the removal of the entire motor assembly, we would advise to take it to an authorized repair center. Contact the toll free helpline at 1-888-909-6757.

Remove the bad starter and on the end that has the geared spindle there should be a part number and manufacturer. Post it and then I can answer your question

I replaced the part, but I found out that the motor was actually bad. It s a straight forward replacement if you have any skills. I have few, but was ale to do it in less than 30 minutes.
