Can't say without seeing the objects. Very likley, the color wheels are driven by a simple clock motor and all it needs is freeing up and maybe a little shaft lube on the rotor. Again, I can't really say because I don't know how difficult it is to disassemble to get at the moving parts. Clock motors can stick when stored for period without moving. Next to a basement floor is a bad location to store due to humidity. A tiny amount of corrosion or oxidation of the lubricant on the rotor shaft will stall the motor. Sometimes, all it takes is a little manual boost to get it going again.

Jemdandy, thanks for the suggestions. I'll try the "boost" method first.

I don't visit this forum at all. I was searching a topic on LED lights and it brought me here.

Post a few pictures and may be I can try to help.

The fact that the LED lights are not working may be related to the rotor wheels not working.
