Worn motor brushes in Plainfield front-loaders
Some front-load washers use a motor with carbon brushes. Bosch and some older Kenmore models are examples. The brushes wear down over years of spinning. When they get too short, the motor loses power or stops. Plainfield owners may notice a weak spin, a burning smell or a drum that will not turn. Our technician checks the brushes, the motor and the belt. Worn brushes are a cheap fix compared with a new motor.

Brushes are measured against the minimum length for your motor. If they are short, new ones go in and the spin is tested. A damaged motor gets weighed against buying another machine. Plainfield homeowners settle on the price before any work. Route 59 neighborhoods regularly see us within the day, and fresh brushes come with our warranty.
Front-load washers along Plainfield's Route 59 corridor
We reach Plainfield on Route 59 or US 30, which run together through the center of town. Front-load washers are common in the newer houses off those roads. A front-load washer that will not spin often has a worn bearing, the ring that the drum rides on. One that will not drain usually has a coin or a sock in the pump. A leak at the door means the rubber boot has torn. We find the fault and set a fixed price before we begin. Top-load and compact washers too. Call (312) 598-9111, 6am to 9pm.
