Bad news for the mower. Apparently I overfilled my batteries and one of them spilled acid down the side... into the motor. I powered it up one day and there was a nice spark from inside the motor. I immediately turned it off and a few days later I tore it apart to find out what the damages were. Here is what I found.
I contacted Ben Nelson and another friend we have that works at a brush manufacturer for advise. This friend offered to turn down the commutator for me. I'll also need a new set of brushes most likely.
