Steve; surely a 1.8 2 speed with resistor is "plug and play" as some like to say (although the motor won't be as powerful). However the connections in the two large connectors are compatible so it will work.

Thanks Paul. That's a very unhelpful photo isn't it. It's impossible to confirm that it's a 2 wire resistor type.

If you definitely have a 3 speed type at the moment, and you fancy a very satisfying and economical repair, then renewing the worn motor brushes is the best option. Make sure that you buy them from Engineering Carbon Products Ltd. though.
