My Atlas E8 has died. Haven't used it for ages so it needed a little push to start. Cleaned the plunger contacts, gave it a run. It seemed to be running smoothly. Stopped it for a sec to do something. Now the lights work but it won't budge. Took the body off to see if I could move the worm a little in case it was sticking. Couldn't as the motor is totally encased by the chassis. Will require lots of time to take it apart.

Dosn't sound good...

Might be just something as simple as a jammed cog.
