ICS M4 Battery Connectors

[Pyrohair]

Hey guys,
Im trying to take apart my ICS M4 and I am having problems taking apart the battery connector section from the wires that lead to the motor. It looks like I just need to pull but it is really hard. Am i doing it wrong? Please help before I end up breaking something :P

if you are talking about the connectors under the handguard, then yes you need to pull and wiggle it a bit to loosen it up.
Slide the rubber sleeve back out of the way and hold onto the metal so you don't pull the wires out of the connector though. They are tight but a little wiggling will help.

Ok, I got that. I've fully disassembled the gun and I've got the gearbox spinning freely. When I put the motor back in and screw it all back up, the gearbox wont spin freely anymore. Im thinking that the motor is stopping it from spinning. Any suggestions to get it to sit better? should the Gears in the gearbox be spinning easily with the motor in place?

If the gears don't move and the motor is in place, that's correct if they do, you're motor is broken. (if you aren't shooting)
