I have a`bosch gof 900ace which has had little use, I come to use it after it being a while since last use, suddenly it started making a funny noise, running slow and a electrical burning smell come from it.
Any guidance appreciated.
thanks,
Paul

Hi Paul

Unplug it and go get a new one

Is there no recession on where you live??

sounds like bad bearings or brushes to me, an easy fix either way...

Michael's likely correct... you might want to pull the brushes and take a look at them though if you got it new and haven't hardly used it, unless the brush is cracked, it shouldn't have work that fast. As for changing bearings, unless you can isolate a bearing as the problem it'll be a "buy and try", so find out the price of the bearings and decide if you want to gamble. I don't know about the UK, but bearings for both ends here could run anywhere from $20 to $75US. If that's the case, BJ's approach may be the wisest???

Got one of the same, had the same problem, bushes fixed it.
derek.
