SUCCESS! I am very pleased to report, that, thanks to the help from this forum, my Creda Supaspeed washer is back in service! As you guys suspected, the brushes had finally gone bad, so I ordered them from the ebay uk, using the link provided by SeamusUK, and they came today. It took me about...

Nothing Yet... Hi chestermike, I am not up and running yet, I am still awaiting the arrival of the brushes from the UK. Should be any day now! I sure hope that solves the problem, it seems, from the condition of the brushes, that that will be the solution. In reviewing the posts above, I...

Creda topless Well, here's the washer with the top off, and brushes removed. The brush from the drum side of the motor was split along its length. Should have new brushes in ten days or so, the I can try it out!

Specs From my user manual : Supply voltage - 240V 60Hz Heating Element - 2220 watts Electric Motor - 200 watts max Total maximum watts - 2800 watts Total maximum current - 12 amps

ADCO Thanks to Tomturbomatic, I was able to call ADCO today. While they were very nice, they are out of stock on the brushes, and only order parts on a quarterly schedule, so they soonest I could get them would be in April. I obviously can't wait that long, so it's back to square one. Looks...

Texas Thanks, Tomturbomatic! I don't know what the secret is, perhaps if I replace these brushes, I will get ANOTHER 16 years out of this washer. Then you guys would have to put me in some kind of hall-of-fame. The Creda brush HOF? Do you know how to get in touch with that guy in Texas?

Motor plate I was able to tip the dryer forward just enough to grab a shot of the motor id plate (luckily it is on top of the motor) Will this be enough to determine the type of brush I need? Thank you! Dave (username)

I forgot... I live about ten miles from where Creda used to have their US offices/dist. It was in Niles, Illinois. I don't know when they left US. The guy I used for my dryer repair is no longer around, but there is another company that will service Creda - They are Platinum Mechanical, just...

Fantastic! You guys are great! I had no idea when I posted this here that I would get a quick and thorough response to my problem. vacbear58 - I will have to wait 'til my wife gets home from work to take the dryer down off the washer - it only weighs 82 lbs, so should be no worries there. Then...

Hi Al (and all), Thanks for the quick reply! The washer will not run on any cycle. By that, I mean that it will fill with water, but the drum never spins. The timer knob turns, and it clicks as it always has, but the machine never washes, or spins. If I advance the timer knob manually, the...

Greetings from the States!! Yes, Creda exists (existed?) in the US. As proof, here is a shot of my Creda Supaspeed washer and SensAir Dryer. Until last week, they both ran perfectly. (Actually, the dryer needed a new belt in 2003 - cost me about $70 to have it replaced.) Now the washer has...
