MOTOR BRUSHES

The electric motors that power your Jet 1 use carbon brushes. These brushes may become susceptible to wear over a long period of time. The motor brushes are the two contacts located inside the motor assembly that supply power to the motor. They are designed to provide several thousand hours of operation. However, if the brushes become dirty with carbon deposits or wear out, the motor will run poorly or not at all. We recommend that your authorized Pride provider inspect the brushes every six months, or sooner if your Jet 1 runs poorly.
