Thanks.  After a tear down, the front motor is not running, but does not appear to be toasted.  Is this common in the off the shelf LionChief product?   Seems so.
If you have the skill and a voltmeter check to see if that motor is getting any power.  It is less likely that a can motor failure is the issue than a bad circuit board.  If it’s new it should be covered under warranty.   That doesn’t help you immediately however.
