If you have replaced the brushes previously did you use like for like.
I never suspected that brushes were anything special, but they are made to a tight spec in a lot of cases, and although the end purpose is the same i.e taking current to copper, there are significant differences in binders/ fillers used. I assume it's dependent on rotational speed, current and insulating material.
I noticed that with my last washer, the brushes went, I replaced them and a few weeks later the pump went.
Coincidence, or is manufacturing quality so good it can hit the expected lifespan with accuracy on multiple components?
