Now, insert the larger gear with teeth on the base onto the circular plastic peg.
Make sure the gears are aligned. Spin the top gear with your fingers a few times to double check.
Replace the black bottom casing and screws.
The screws are susceptible to stripping so do not over-tighten them.

Заключение

Your motor should be working again. Before reinstalling it on your robot, test it either with a backup battery or by plugging it in to your cortex. If you hear more grinding or anything out of the ordinary, reopen the motor to make sure the gears are aligned.

You can also use this process to change the gear ratio of the motor for different functions.
