Thanks for your reply.

I know the tab you mean and I did depress it however it seemed very much crimped on, no movement in the slightest. They seem secure now and as secure as they are in the video but of course not as secure as they once were. What is the worst case scenario if they are damaged? A I okay to post a link to the video?

Re: Bosch WFD 2471 drum not spinning after previous noise.

Thanks for all your help. After being messed around by one company which doesn’t know the definition of in stock I had to cancel and order from some where else but have final got the set of carbon brushes today.

I put them in the motor but one thing I did notice is that the clips which connect to them was really stuck on and hard to remove the first time. Now the clips seems to be fasten and remove much easier but if I tug the wire the carbon brush connector moves with it so I guess it’s okay. The YouTube video I was following seemed to document this behaviour although he didn’t seem to have the trouble I did removing them. Is this the norm in anyone’s experience? Should I be concerned that vibration from the spin will remove the connector?

Thanks again.

Thanks for your reply.

Is there any test I can do on the motor to make sure this is the case before ordering new brushes? I have a multimeter.

Are the generic carbon brushes okay or would you recommend using Bosch branded ones?

Thanks again for your help.
