Wish they had sold them in the US with the Ze3 power nozzle instead of the Eureka nozzles they were sold with here.
Hi friends- does ANY ONE know where I can get a new set of motor brushes for Electrolux Model S? I have looked about everywhere & looks like I may need to try to get a pair or two custom made.
Hi Tom and welcome to Vacuumland. I'm fairly certain that the Model S and Model G motors are the same along with others of the period. An option for you is to check with the seller of this eBay auction (unknown to me) or another that you may find. https://www.ebay.com/itm/256415947602?

Let us know what you find out, and consider starting a new thread sometime with photos of your Model S (it's preferred to keep threads on their original topics).

Regarding the color scheme of the 1978 to 1982 D Series models the 1978 Electrolux Group Annual Report referred to the colors as brick and black.
Here they declared it as orange-brown in the overview and sold it from 1979-81.

Oh this were shampooers. The whits as accessory for the blower on the vac.
The blue is indipendent appliance. France had the stick vac. I think Z102 (?). We had it under the brand Volta
Ah, that's it. I looked and found that it debuted in 1972, and the model is ZS1.

France's stick vac was the model D118 Majordome. It also had the Z108 hand vac. The Z102 is a cylinder vac.

It was a Z model (380/390/400) renamed as D715. This were mainly sold in the UK and in some other countries.

Was it made in the UK? I prowl the UK, German and Italian eBay sites on occasion looking for interesting treasure and am surprised how many seemingly unique to UK and UK made Electrolux models there were.

I'm really on a mission to find a Z457 I can use as a template to correctly rewire the US version, the Sanitaire S490A, an example of which I have but the wires fell off their posts on the main board : (

I think it was made in the UK as it was mainly sold there with different models. I saw only the Z400 in Sweden. A friend of me has a D version. But i have never seen one. We had at the same time the German ones design like the Z457
