Had a e/motor burn out on me in my raptor 400psi
took apart .looked absolutily knacked , sourced a new one , prices varied with the pump from around
£600 to £800 :'( :'(
decided to let a local electric motor repairers have a look ,
complete rewind, new ceramic lining, rewiring, and new bearings £180 inc.
was assured , as good as a new motor ,
apparently they recon , a bearing was prob worn , maybe a small peice sheared causing havoc
,just goes to show if you notice any change in sound from your pump get it looked at right away,unlike me :-[ :-[ who didnt really take much notice of the slight difference in noise.
Many tks Mike for your time in refitting, yet again a life saver ;)
Geoff.
ps the comp who repaired , will repair and ship.
