Hey, welcome to the world!

I did the motor replacement thing about 3 years ago, and recall having to, ah, gently modify the replacement motor to fit. I vaguely recall having to cut some extraneous lugs or mounting tabs off? Compare and contrast the old and new motors carefully to see the differences - calipers can help here - and good luck.

Looking back, I took photos of the old motor and wiring, but sadly not of the shiny replacement - so no help posting those here. Be good to have that info documented on the site.
