GearBox or Motor? Problem...

I am sorry for making so many threads but Ive been trying to fix this problem and I have no one to turn to.

When I installed a EG1000 motor (new) to my newly custom made m4a1... switch to Semi auto and press the trigger (which pulls all the way back). The piston does not move. Nothing moves basically and no sound is coming out from the motor.

By the way this is an systema complete mechbox equipped with an m120.

What I do notice is a burning smell from the motor. So I take out the motor away from the pistol grip connect it to the mechbox and test it, it works.

I really do not know what the problem is.

I am using a 3300MAH 9.6v battery. So I believe more than enough juice is running to the motor.

Possibilities:

Could the motor be fried? Lost its power?- WHen the motor was first installed it was running fine. It was until the metal disconnect female wire plug piece snapped in half and reinstalling the motor is when the problem began.

I have also noticed the Red wire being very long. Making it very hard to install the motor plate.

*** Please help... I am in desperate need to make this gun work!***

Thanks alot! :cheers:
