I have an Aries with a single flywheel motor. The platter is now turning at about half speed. I have quite a bit of vibration in the drive belts between the motor shaft and the flywheel. I replaced the drive belts, lubricated the motor and flywheel, and tried a different AC source. No change. Do you think the motor has gone bad? Scott Smith

Sounds like a potential motor issue! Check the belt first if it's belt-driven. Could be stretched or cracked. Lubrication might help if it's a direct drive. Makes me think of Infinite Craft; sometimes you need a motor to combine elements and speed up progress! Anyway, carefully inspect the motor for any visible damage or burnt smells. Good luck!
