Re: New motor brushes Vax 2100

Can I recommend googles and gloves for the big hammer part of the attack?

No no, we are far more sophisticated than that. 🙄

The brush will come out………but whether or not another will replace it is another thing.
If not there is lots of useable salvage. All sorts of crap that may be useful one day…………….or not

One more very small (caravan) carpet to clean first tho’.

Shall I report my inevitable success, or keep quiet about it? 😀

Thxs GB, but I will have a major psycho-wallet problem with any repair cost.
I only paid £6 for the thing! 😀

I will go into ‘nothing-to-lose’ final attack mode shortly ………….. there has to be a way ……………. the quest continues…………….

Hi Goatboy & thxs.

Yes the motor would not always start, so stripped down to it, gave brushes a prod & it was fine. Then it starts to slow & you can see the front brush sparking — give a tap (no, not with a metal end!) & all is fine again.

Guess I will have to find a scrap motor someplace as I refuse to be a captive market victim wherever possible 👿 🙄
