What do carbon brushes do for your washing machine?
Carbon brushes facilitate electrical contact between the motor and other parts of the washing machine. They give the necessary electrical current to power the motor to rotate and perform various functions during the washing process.
What damages the carbon brush?
Continuous use and friction against the motor's rotating armature cause the brushes to wear down and decrease electrical contact and performance. Excessive heat, dirt, or debris accumulation reduce conductivity and create potential motor malfunction.

Latest Product Review(s)
Quality product
Good quality brushes, bit of patience needed to compress the spring to fit but doable. Take the motor off makes it much easier.
Bosch Washing Machine Brushes
Was not too difficult to fit these and the machine is now working perfectly once again. Much cheaper than a new machine or calling out an engineer.
Trickier to fit than compatible set bought earlier
These brushes had longer springs of larger diameter and were a challenge to compress into the guide tube. We realized why self-contained screw-on brush units were so popular! After fitting them we wondered how they were inserted during manufacture of Bosch washing machines and if there was a fitting tool to save time. In idle moments afterwards we designed a simple and cheap device to make the process quick and easy. These brushes replaced compatible ones bought from you in June this year and which had worn really quickly. I have photographs comparing the new and these old brushes which had a shorter, smaller diameter spring, but there is no provision to illustrate the review. The washer has been in use most days for many years. As before it was easier to remove the motor and see both brush locations clearly. The video by Lee was very clear though more hints on removing the motor would have been useful as its mounting was unusual.
I gambled and it paid off.
Our old Bosh washing machine decided to stop working the very first month after cancelling the breakdown service agreement. It registered Error 43 and after resetting would not spin. Worn out motor brushes was one of the potential causes and I hoped the most likely cause given its age (9 years). Worth a shot I thought especially after looking at the cost of a new Bosh machine just before Christmas! The brushes were completely worn out but the replacements I ordered were slightly too wide but easily filed down to size. Machine is now back in service and very happy.
Motor Brushes
Exactly what I wanted, fitted well and did the job. Recommended
Easy fix
Not replaced these before but took the old ones out for a look first and were worn out (symptoms being washer had failed to spin and then tripped the house electric off!). Watch the video for tips on fitting but it's easy enough if you're handy. Washer back up and running well pleased.
Not the easiest to fit, but works perfectly
Replacing the bushes was not the easiest task - you pretty much have to get the motor out in order to fit them properly. So I am glad that I knew that I had the right parts and they were going to fit first time. Once in, everything was back up and running and everything has been fine since. I'll hopefully get a couple more years out of this machine - I already replaced the main bearing with spares from ransom. No doubt I'll be back again the next time something goes.
Just what I ordered
Delivery was as promised and brushes were easy to fit once I found a youtube video to help.
Great product- easy to fit.
On line video was fantastic -really helpful . Really surprised the repair worked first time and so gratified it worked when I switched it back on!
Bosch Washing Machine Brushes # 00616505
Ordered these for Bosch WAE24461GB with F21 fault code after checking Bosch website for part number. The original pair lasted 2.5 years, then a further 1 year with reclaimed brushes. Ordered before 10am, arrived next day by Royal Mail unsigned. Fiddly spring insertion on tilted machine with a plumbers mirror. Didn't need to clear error code this time round.
