This is useless. It doesn't even show the motor being removed. You'd have to at least open the gearbox as well.
Careful when you remove the plugs on the power board, I had one where the solder joints broke from the board and the connector was still attached but no longer electrically connected. Try to get a spudger or anything to help pry connectors off, when pulling, pull straight out do not wiggle connectors.
I was able to fix the board by resoldering large globs on the back in to get it reconnect to the traces... Its working for now and if I had to I cut scrap off more of the PCB to reveal fresh traces to connect to but better to not have to do this.
Replacing the motor fixed the burning electric smell coming from the old one.
