Default Central lock motor rebuilder?

I am slowly working the bugs out of my 2000 D2. My next challenge is the central locking system. If I hit the lock or unlock switch, I can hear the motor running, but nothing happens. I plan to check the vacuum circuits when I have time, but I also remember seeing a post here stating somebody rebuilds the pumps for a reasonable amount.
Anybody know of a resource to rebuild the pump motors? Are these used on any other Audi models that I could possibly scavenge out of a boneyard?

Thanks, 4Driver4.
Today I pulled out the motor from behind the stack of Millennium-age electronics in the trunk. I disconnected the two plastic vac/pressure circuits and used a handheld vac tester to test the circuits. Indeed my plumbing was ok and the locks moved up/down. So I pulled out the motor assembly to get to the root of the issue and it was apparent the rotor portion of the pump has broken apart. Anybody know if those parts are replaceable?
