  • We had this - screaming banshee type sound - I took the motor out and took it to euronics shop Rayners Lane - guy put it on a test bed and said he has no idea - probably a bearing or brush issue and a new motor would be more than a new machine. I was surprised how simple it was go take the motor out - it was a low range Bosch .
