Hello, i'm a coplete novice so please excuse my iggnorance.


I have a turbo optima mid SE that i am looking to restore. It has a Le Mans 360 gold motor. When i plug in the battery, the wheels turn when using the pistol controller (FP-t2PKA - magnum junior)but i get nothing from the motor. I disconnected the motor from the car, to check it out.

If i hold down the trigger on the controller then manually spin the flywheel(right word?) that is connected to the motor, the engine turns (albeit slowly) . once again, the engine only moves when i start spinning it by hand.

Is this as simple as replacing the brushed (or as bad as having to replace the motor)

Thank you
Anthony
