It sounds like the motor windings are not connected properly. Is it possible the connector orientation got swapped? Is it an identical motor? (same voltage and current requirement)

If you turn the motor by hand does the mechanism move freely?

Do the motors work when they are not mechanically connected - just electrical connection?
