Bosch drive motor failure on spin function. Failed to reach full speed
and then tripped out the house RCD.

Google seems to imply this is terminal for the motor. On examination the
carbon brushes have worn to the point where the copper inserts have
marked the commutator.

Set of brushes are cheap enough but replacing the motor at 175-200ukp
seems poor economics.

Any experience?

Remove the RCD, they are pansies and trip for anything.

Are you only capable of typing ********?
