Hold on Gene. Might not have to buy a motor. As I recall, the "braking" comes
from the relay shorting the motor, when the switch is returned to neutral or
when the magnetic switch senses full travel. I don't believe that there are
any mechanical breaking properties in the motor itself. I'd check the relay
with an ohmeter to make sure that all of the contacts are "making" before
tearing out the motor. Also, see if you can manually connect current to the
motor in both polarities to test it's function in both directions.
My bet is on the relay or the wiring, not the motor.
