hey there its me again. i managed to het hold of a uln2003 and i wired a motor to it. the motor struggled to run and after about 5-30 seconds. then it stopped completly. the battries are still pretty new. the voltage measured through the motor was 5-6v and the current through it was 0.3-0.8A. when the motor stopped both measurements were 0. the motor needs 3-12V to run. i tried with another motor and the same thing happens.
can you guys tell me what is wrong please. the code on the picaxe 08m is :
start:
high 4
goto start
and the schematic can be found on this site:

(i wired so many outputs to the motor because it wouldn't run at all if i wired only 1 output. i eventually ran out of wire so couldn't wire more)
