Hi Andrew,
If your Luxor LW05S uses a brushed motor, the safest way to get the right carbon brushes is to identify the motor fitted, rather than rely only on the washing machine model. These machines were often rebadged, so parts can vary.
1. Isolate the washing machine from the mains before removing any panels or inspecting internal parts.
2. Remove the back panel and look at the motor label. You want the motor make and full number, often something like SELNI, CESET, or ASKOLL. The brush set is usually matched to the motor, not the badge on the front of the machine.
3. Compare the existing brushes: - carbon block size - shape of the holder - terminal type - whether they are left/right handed
4. Try UK appliance spares suppliers by searching using the motor number as well as “Luxor LW05S carbon brushes”. Good places to check include: - eSpares - BuySpares - Ransom Spares - Appliance Care - eBay, but only if the brush shape and dimensions match exactly
5. If you remove the old brushes, check their length. If they are down to around 10–15 mm or less, replacement is often justified. Also inspect the commutator on the motor for heavy burning or damage.
6. If you post the motor number or a clear photo of the motor label and old brushes, it should be possible to narrow down the exact set.
If you are not confident working on the machine, especially around mains components, it’s best to use a qualified appliance engineer.
