Control Celestron

my telescope, Celestron Nexstar 80gt is blowing smoke from motor?
After using a dozen times i powered it up and the motor which controls the slewing etc started blowing smoke... Does it have a fuse or something i could have blown or is it going to be heaps harder to fix then i thought...
old electronic saying,
if the smoke gets out its probably dead.
the fuse would have blown before the smoke started
its there to stop the motor from reaching that point
and yes its going to be heaps harder to repair as the gearbox is probably jammed as well since tmechanical faults usually cause motors to stall
and let the smoke out
