Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

Help me please! The motor to my light tracking bristlebot is broken and i have a project due on the 21st of this month. The blue wire keeps disconecting from the motor and i cant get it to work. Ihave gone through the troubleshooting, and there is nothing for my situation. What should i do?

I would immediately send a complaint to the company that the motor was defective. I would order another one as soon as possible with the hope, but not expectation, of some sort of reimbursement. I recommend continuing your efforts, but I don't believe that you can fix the broken motor. If there is a way to fix the wire, I hope that someone can respond in addition to me. I hope that helps, and I wish you the best of luck.
