Sounds like a stripped gear. You'll probably want to eyeball them if you can. They are at the top of each landing gear post.
Also, it's been mentioned here before, but if you raise them too high when retracting you can damage them. Most folks put a mark on the post about an inch before they hit the top. If you stop it at the mark, you never jam the gears against their upper limit or strain the motor and other parts.
