Can anyone advise on where I might get this fixed. I am located in Sydney Australia,
or failing that how I would go about repairing the motor?

I had never ever had one monorail motor in hand. So no guarantee if it got fixed
by my advise.

When I try to fix motors(in general) I spray a little bit (not drown it) with
WD40 between the black axle and the gray house. Then power it up with the correct
voltage.
Works almost always for

This one is even easier you can open it, and remove all the dust and other junk
before starting it up.

Thank you
I will give it a try,
I will let you know. I was a bit hesitant as it is expensive to replace. I guess
that doesn't matter given it is not working . lol
