50278238006 Genuine Motor Bush Kit for Electrolux Group NX4C Condenser Dryers, Dryer Motor Bushes

Kit 50278238006 is a genuine Electrolux group motor bush kit for dryers built on the NX4C condenser platform. Bushes are the sleeve bearings the motor shaft turns in, and when they dry out or wear, the motor gets noisy and works harder. Use this kit when the motor itself is sound but its bushes have worn, and check that your dryer is an NX4C condenser model before ordering.

Noisy condenser dryer motor? Check the bushes

The motor in a condenser dryer turns the drum through a belt and often drives the fans as well, so it runs for the whole cycle. Its shaft spins in bushes that rely on a small amount of lubricant. As they wear, you'll hear a squeal or a dry grinding sound that gets worse as the dryer warms up, the drum may turn slowly or hesitate, and the motor can run hot and trip its thermal protection. Catching worn bushes early can save the motor itself from failing.

Fitting the bush kit

Unplug the dryer and give it time to cool. Removing the motor usually means taking off the belt, so photograph the belt path and wiring first. Clean any old lubricant and fluff from the motor housing before fitting the new bushes. This is a fiddly job, so a qualified technician is a good option if you haven't done it before.
