gears. they're rebuildable. there's a kit from ecklers that has metal gears as replacements.

Bought a new one from Chev $170 and change Put it on , works fine. Thanks for the help. BTW there was no warning or any signs ahead of time, just gone. I pulled the fuses with the lights up and drove it for a few days till I had time for the fix. Kickstart
