Default Is my motor done?

A regular 540 sized motor. I was running it today and suddenly it slowed down and stopped. I checked the 2S Lipo voltage and it is at 7.9V. I recharged the battery up to 8.4V and tried it again. the motor won't move anymore.

But if I push it a little, it will move a bit. It is a brushed motor, is it time for a new motor?

I took out the motor and notice that two green things got disconnected from one of sides.
