Should be an easy fix once back home..
I hobbled back to Houston from Gulfport once when I lost the connections on my shovel, which lead to a change in connections for me.
I had three folks help me charge it up enough to keep it going along the way. Sat in one guys van and we got loaded as it charged on his van running.

It definitely is not the destination on trips..

The "funny vibration" sounds like a rotor magnet may have come loose and killed the stator.
