Need new slide motor

Slide motor on my 5th wheel quit working. I took it apart and it looks good except for one spring on one of the brushes is broken. Is there anywhere I can buy a reconditioned motor? New ones are very expensive especially when it’s only one tiny spring broken.

By a new brush $2 to $3 All you need is the size / measurement and hardness

If worse comes to worse buy a brush that’s too big and grind / file to size
Make sure you clean out the carbon dust and the commutator slots
