Exactly what I needed.  My Bosch Nexxt 100 stopped spinning the drum. I would hear a faint "click" and it would cycle through the wash cycles without ever moving.  Thought I was about to plop down 800 bucks for a new washing machine.  After an online search of several forums, these turned up on some UK sites.  Bosch doesn't provide any official info on the use of these here in the US, but these machines are transmission-less, with I'm assuming a DC motor that can vary in direction and speed directly.  So, it took me an hour to get the motor removed (worse part was removing the wiring - the clips holding the wires squeeze in, not out) and about 10 minutes to replace the brushes.  Expect one to be almost new looking and one to be worn out.  Back in service no problems.
