Yeah that funky smell is from the motor an is generally caused by stress or an electrical short. I wouldn't worry about this as your primary problem as of yet. Try to diagnose the other problems you have because the motor issue might not be a problem anymore if the others are fixed.
The above posts have given you a lot to work with already and if you are still having issues just post up a reply if you still cannot get it up and running again
