I know it would be a difficult task, and might end up damaging the motors, but applying 12vdc across a known short is not what I would consider a safe option let alone a good fix. More debris could still be in the motor, and the frag from blasting the original offender is still in there and becomes a complete unknown. It would be like asking Murphy pay a visit at the worst possible moment.

I agree it's not the safest option, but you could always try shorting it with a source that does NOT easily supply 500 A...
