Drop in to your local RC hobby store or do some surfing. May not be the most inexpensive option, but then again they don't have $100 minimum either...
Repairing something? If the original motor is not completely fried perhaps it can be fixed with brushes from "close enough" spare and a drop of oil to brass bearing/sliding surfaces.

Most RC applications appear to require 6V, 7.2V, or 9.6V batteries, not 12V. Furthermore, a replacement for the subject 12V motor needs to be of exactly the same dimensions in order to fit into a moulded casing (there are no mounting screws). As for replacing the brushes, that is an option, if I can find a suitable brush holder assembly. The motor is exhibiting insufficient torque and shows a consistent 8 ohms resistance (IIRC) when rotated through a full 360 deg. In any case I believe the customer has already ordered a new assembly.
Thanks for your interest.

Yes, I too require the same 12V motor for a door lock actuator. I've been surfing around a bit but have been unsuccessful in locating a supplier. Has anyone made anyprogress?
These look like the sort of motors that couldn't be given away a few years ago. Does someone like Truscotts in Croydon, Vic have them amongst their junk?
No good looking for a website other than finding a phone number.

All Truscott's junk went to Pete's Bargain Centre near Oban Rd in Ringwood a couple of years ago. Some of it's still there.
