4. Opsætning og installation

Safety Warning: Always unplug the washing machine from the power outlet before attempting any repair or installation. Failure to do so can result in electric shock or serious injury.

Replacing carbon brushes typically involves accessing the washing machine's motor. The exact procedure may vary depending on your washing machine model. It is recommended to consult your appliance's specific service manual or a qualified technician if you are unsure about the process.

1. Afbryd strømmen: Ensure the washing machine is completely unplugged from the mains electricity supply.
2. Access Motor: Depending on the model, you may need to remove the back panel, front panel, or tilt the machine to access the motor.
3. Find pensler: The carbon brushes are usually located on either side of the motor, often held in place by a plastic housing or screws.
4. Fjern gamle børster: Carefully disconnect any wires attached to the brush holders. Unscrew or unclip the old carbon brushes from their housings. Note their orientation.
5. Clean Commutator (Optional but Recommended): If accessible, gently clean the copper commutator on the motor armature with a fine-grade sandpaper or commutator stone to remove any carbon residue.
6. Installer nye børster: Insert the new carbon brushes into their housings, ensuring they are oriented correctly. They should slide in smoothly. Secure them with the provided screws or clips.
7. Tilslut ledningerne igen: Reattach any wires that were disconnected.
8. Saml igen: Reassemble the washing machine panels.
9. Prøve: Plug the washing machine back in and perform a short test cycle to ensure proper operation.

5. Driftsprincipper

Once correctly installed, the new carbon brushes will make proper contact with the motor's commutator. This contact allows electrical current to flow to the motor's armature windings, creating a magnetic field that interacts with the stator's magnetic field, causing the motor to rotate. The brushes are designed to wear down gradually over time, providing consistent electrical contact.

6. Vedligeholdelse

Carbon brushes are wear-and-tear components and do not require routine maintenance beyond eventual replacement. Their lifespan depends on usage frequency and motor design. It is advisable to inspect them periodically (e.g., every few years or if motor performance degrades) to check for wear. Replace them when they are significantly shortened (typically less than 1 cm in length) or if they show signs of chipping or uneven wear.

7. Fejlfinding

If your washing machine motor is experiencing issues, worn carbon brushes are a common culprit. Here are some symptoms and potential solutions:

Note: These are common issues related to carbon brushes. Other motor or appliance problems may exist. If troubleshooting does not resolve the issue, professional assistance may be required.
