#1 Rebuilt Washer Pump Motor
Posted: Fri Oct 27, 2017 5:35 pm
Hi,
Just a quick note on the Lucas washer motor for the later plastic washer bottle types. I dismantled mine and found that one of the carbon brushes had fallen off the brass strip. Tried and failed to get a new set of brushes and the replacement motors seem to be very expensive.
Anyway, I superglued the brush back on the strip. I had to run a little bit of solder over the joint to get it to conduct. Put together and now works a treat (so far) for zero cost.
