If you are playing foozball and your ball bounces back out of the goal, do you expect the table's manufacturer to fix it? No - you groan and keep playing! Nothing's different here. Like Dave said, it's part of the challenge of playing the game. - petek [more]

Re: pic: burnt up TETRIX motor

The part that failed is the cylinder-ish one in the back, right? The blue blob is a shunt capacitor I think. It tries to reduce the brush noise on the power input line. If that shorts, you will blow a fuse every time. The smoke some others mention may also be from the part that failed here; just on the verge of failing.
