I've heard of this before but never experienced it personally.

In Mario's excellent book, he recommends that you "turn the pulley gently
but firmly in the same direction the motor was turning when it jammed.
At the same time, push the pulley against the motor until you hear a "click"."

...he has other advice if that doesn't work - you should buy the book!
