It sounds as if you've deduced your own problem. Sometimes you can get more life out of the motor by changing just the brushes. When you pull the blower, check the armature for scoring or excessive wear. If not too bad, give the brush replacement a try. Replacements are available, along with instructions, at www.**************.com
