Hi Warren,
Thanks for the info. It sounds right to me. There was nothing wrong in my
opinion with the brushes. I will just toss the thing out I think.
Thanks again.

Hi John,

Before you throw it out, check and see if you can take the motor itself in
somewhere and have it repaired. I'm talking about an outfit who's only
business is that of repairing electric motors. These places have all the
parts and tools necessary to rewind armatures, turn and true commutators,
fabricate new brush assemblies, replace motor bearings...the whole nine
yards. I've been able to resurrect a number of devices that use electric
motors that otherwise were candidates for the scrap heap by removing the
defective motor and simply taking the motor in to have it repaired.

I would at least look into this before throwing the mower away.

Just my .02 cents.
