If you're referring to carbon brushes, I'd have to see a picture taken from above the unit, close enough to see the nuts to which you refer.

SOURCE: NuTone CV353 Central Vac does not start when hose is plugged into

Try to plug the hose in sideways. So the top of the hose is rotated 90 degrees. If the unit turns on then there is something wrong with the hose. It might be a short or it could be a bad switch on the handle. If the unit still wont turn on I would think that maybe the low voltage wire got disconnected from the unit or there is a break in the low voltage wire somewhere along the way. Let me know if you plugging the hose in sideways works.

You may have a stuck relay or one of your access port switches may be bad. According to the owners manual: "A complete check of all Wall Inlet and Power Unit low voltage control lead connections (external yellow leads). Turn system off by removing fuse or tripping circuit breaker at
house fuse box."

Nutone Model CV353; runs for several minutes and then shuts off. After a couple of hours I can turn on again, but again only last a couple of minutes. Possible relay problem?
Check the filter. If it's dirty, thoroughly rinse it in cool water, then let it thoroughly dry before using. If you don't have an extra filter to use during this time, you should get one.
It could also be a clogged hose or pipe. These would cause the motor to overheat, thus shutting off. Check hose at end for suction. If weak or nonexistent, detach hose and try dropping a penny or dime, or marble, down the hose. If it comes out the end, the hose is probably clear. If this is the case, you need to check other outlets.

Nutone CV353 does not shut off, think it is the relay board
You probably have a stuck relay. You can try tapping with medium force next to where the low voltage wires are attached to the unit using the handle end of a hammer. Even if this works it's time to replace the circuit board. Take the unit to a local vacuum repair center for service.

CV-353 will only go off by unplugging. Electrical disconnected from ports to unit. Checked push pins on all ports and they are moving in and out.

I have a Nutone CV353 system in my utility room every time it
open a window, or the bathroom door if there is a vent in there it will draw in air from there, just be careful because if there is a bunch of dust up there it may fall out.

Nutone cv353 central vac blew up
My guess would be that the motor is done. Impossible to diagnose for sure without seeing it of course. If you were happy with the unit before the trouble, a replacement motor will probably run $250-$300. If you are interested in a new unit, shop around. There are definitely better designed and more powerful units out there, although some of them can cost quite a bit more than $300. Good Luck!!

CENTRAL VACUUM SYSTEM
Disconnect the inlet piping from the unit and check the suction there. Be sure that the utility inlet on the unit is closed. If you have good suction, you have an open/broken pipe somewhere, or possible an inlet valve or vacpan that is not sealing when closed. The easiest way to find it would be to install your tubing back into the inlet of the unit, turn the unit on, and walk around the house listening for air leaks. Good Luck!!
