Default Fostex G16/24 again

I repaired a G24 for a local studio about 4-5 months back and its down
again with the same problem. The issue is the high current switch for
the take up side reel motor (2SD1047). The one I pulled out was not
shorted, but really leaky. So this makes the third time the same
problem has cropped up.

Anyone else seen this problem? Possible that the motor's on the way
out and pulling too much current? I'm thinking of subbing a little
higher current part for that d1047, but that just may be a band-aid
fix. I didn't check the driver x-istor in front of the 1047for
leakage, just for shorts. Seems like if that was causing a problem it
would've lasted a few days, not a few months.
