(ET) Overheating deck motor



We have a deck motor that runs, but draws a lot of current and overheats. I can think of two possible causes:

1. Shorted armature winding(s), but we took it to a local motor guy; he put the armature on his "growler" and found no problems.

2.  Field magnets have somehow become much weaker - can this happen?

Any other ideas?

thanks,
