bush washing machine wm 1460 tve sparks!

[DominoMogwai]

Hi all,
Can someone shed a bit of light on my problem please. My washing machine seems to have blue sparks underneath the machine at the corner when it hits the fastest part of the spin and is now sparking from the corner to the middle.
The brushes have been checked and are fine.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

In my days, it was the armature or brushes.

If the brushes are ok then it must be a probelm with the motor commuator which the brushes brush against which would mean a new motor or new machine.

oh right.
The machines only two years old wasn't expecting to have to replace it so soon
