Hi:
I don't kow if I or someone else answered your first question. However, I'll try to help now. First, it is normal for them to get warm, but not hot enough to melt the plug. Has that happened? Next, check the power supply to the motor itself for continuity. Make sure there isn't too much resistance in that wire. If the resister is new and the motor, that is about all it could be unless you got a bad part that is drawing too many amps.
