Very useful guide - I treated myself to a new motor as the cost was not much more than the cost of replacement brushes.

Bonjour

et si on n’a rien pour souder, y a t’il une autre solution svp?

GALLAS - Reply Share

Bonjour ! Si vous ne disposez pas de matérial de soudure, nous vous conseillons de vous rendre à un Repair Café ou un Fab Lab. Ces associations mettent du matériel à disposition et peuvent éventuellement aussi vous conseiller sur la démarche à suivre. Bonne réparation !
