Introduction
This guide details how to replace worn-out electrical brushes from a Turbo Power 1500 Professional Blow Dryer Model No. 307 by Turbo Power Inc., Type 001 US-110-125. All you need are a couple new electrical brushes and a Phillips #1 screwdriver.
If you're noticing sparks or quick flashes of light when you use your blow dryer, or if it simply isn't working properly, there's a strong chance that the electrical brushes have reached the end of their lifespan. Make sure to purchase electrical brushes that are compatible with your specific device before beginning.
Make sure the dryer is unplugged before beginning.
