Apparently the windings had to be done, the big lump that spins around. Looked like a difficult job but to an expert no problem at all and considering the work not expensive. Still a bit of a shock with the total cost considering I thought it might be something simple but should now last another 80 years.

Ah! The armature, then—surprising, because I've never heard of one of these giving up. For future reference, any armature can be tested for continuity on all sectors by asking an auto-electrician to give it a 'growler test', which only takes a minute.
