Wondering if anybody can tell me the voltage used to drive the iPhone 4 vibrator motor.

I changed my black phone to white, and to my horror the vibrate hasn't worked since re-assembly. I installed iBrate and set the thing vibrating with the back glass off and vibrator removed. Output to the two terminals seems to be about 0.3 volts. I would love to know if this is the correct voltage - if so I would conclude a faulty vibrator motor. If the voltage output is wrong, I guess I will have to kiss the vibrating feature goodbye (as I'm not sure how I'd go about troubleshooting that) :confused:

Any input is appreciated!
