Rich, IMO, this is not a useful reply to some who is trying to help.

>It has been posted here by a couple of the technicians that work on these, that they have yet to replace one... or rarely... <

This is true - as I'm one of these techs - BUT - if a source of these motors were readily available CHEAP - then it would be simplier (= quicker = cheaper for the client) and far more certain to change them than go through the messy and not always successful repair actions.

>all they need is a good cleaning out of the carbon dust...<

This is incorrect and shows a misunderstanding of what's been written about the job. What has to be done is to re-burnish the motor's brushes so a stable electrical connection between the rotor to stator is made internally in the motor.

This actually burns away the used layer of the brush's surface to present a new clean surface so a good connection is made again - obviously it can't be done too many times before there are no brushes left.

Hence a source of new motors would be a real nice thing to have available.
