Quick diagnostic guide. Tell us happens exactly and what sound (type and pitch).

1-Remove the complete upper. Try to press the trigger when everything is in place (except the upper receiver). you will be able to see if anything is moving/not working.

2-Remove the motor. Remove the brushes. Remove the endbell (the plastic plate that hold the brushes). Check for any debris that can have fallen in the motor case. That might be preventing the motor from working 100%. Also check the magnets for chips/cracks. A broken magnet loses over 80% of it's efficiency. If you are not comfortable with that, skip it.

3-Check the pinion for wear/damage. Sometimes a little grain of sand can cause one hell of a mess.

4-CAREFULLY check your gears. Again, the debris can be very small.

5-Brief us on what it is.
