you'll get there mate. The bearings are really cheap and easy to replace.

just a guess on the price, but the problem you're going to have is getting one the correct depth.

probably, it'll be around £150 ish

replace the bearings, sounds like they're shot

Does it give poor pressure.

try taking the plastic pump apart and re-flatten the surfaces, they can leak through the casing giving poor pressure.
I've repaired one before using this method, and it works well.

they don't look too bad, were they sticky to get out or did they slide out easily?

if there are brushes on the top of the motor give them a clean and check the depth

Did you get my pm ?

er32's and a few sidelocks.

have you got any further with this.

PS. I have some BT35 holders in if you need any.

what resistance do you get across one coil without it connected to the driver. Make sure the driver is off before you disconnect.

Andy if you have a good multimeter you can identify the coils by their resistance

what are the colours of all wires, and which ones do you have wired.

it's normal to have the other four wires short and heatshrunk, but they're normally connected together in pairs, as they're the centre taps of both coils, or end and start of A- A+ and B- B+ coils.

were the unused wires connected to each other in pairs

maybe Martin can shed some light, I would have thought all 8 coils would be wired in to the 4 wires. Maybe you thought the linked coils were just wires not connected. Did you measure the resistance across the coils.
