Hi Tom, resistance is very low. The most likely problem is with the  
brushes. With enough use, the brushes wear out. The copper face of the  
commutator 
can also wear and need refacing. Kind of like in the old automotive  days 
when generators had the same problem.

I have a  W0MLY prop-pitch that suddenly quit working. Can anyone provide 
the  resistance values
of the motor windings? Any help is  appreciated.
