- Simple repair for a Snow Joe Snow SJ627E corded Electric Snow Thrower or Snow Blower that will not start. Reseating a conductive plunger back (motor brush) into the electric motor stater (for lack of a better description). Along the way we look at some of the internals of the device.
Appologies for the shakey camera and poor lighting.
Proceed at your own risk.
I was unable to find anything about this in the users manual.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I had the exact same issue. I ended up pulling it completely apart then after resetting the brush, I ended up taping electrical tape around both brushes to hopefully keeping those brushes in place.
Great video...all the sensations of a prolonged visit to a dentist....but so much cheaper!
It appears that what you had in your hand was a carbon brush assembly. The carbon in the brush transmits current from the supply (power plug) to the field winding of the rotor in the motor. They are often held in place by a screw down bracket so they don't work loose due to vibration. Your brush obviously worked loose and by reseating it you put it back in contact with the motor.
Old school brushes on the old starters when you could rebuild them
Tracker - thanks for the vidio. I had the same problem, had to take the Snowjoe apart just like you did to reach the carbon brush, pushed it back in - and the snowthrower works again. The assembly is on the bottom side and most likely would vibrate out again. I goobered the outside of the brush assembly and the plastic housing with silicone calk. The silicone should hold it in. If the brush assembly does vibrate out in the future, the silicone is easlly removable with a razer knife so I can do a repeat repair.
Mine had the same problem!! Thanks for the video. I have mine up and running
Same problem. THANK YOU! My 4th one with same issue.
Fingers crossed that's my problem. Thanks for the video
Thanks! Feel empowered to give it a go!
Solved my issue! Thanks
I will try this , cheers!
I had the same problem, all the sudden after stopping won’t start again. Lights and chute worked, meaning the battery had enough juice but auger wouldn’t turn. To solve the problem, I pressed the start (blue) button for 10-12 seconds to give the unit a “hard reset.”

That was pretty impressive on your part. I just purchased the same model a little over a month ago but haven't had an opportunity to use it yet. I have a 5 year old Toro 1800 powercurve electric which is pretty powerful but has a plastic auger. I also wanted something wider and with a taller intake.
I also went from that same Toro to my newer machine a year ago. Same reasons too.

After using the SnowJoe last winter, I tried using the Toro again, at first it was disappointing but then I found a groove with it, then after 5 years the plastic auger broke. I then purchased and replaced the auger and scraper, too late to use again for the season.
So now I still have it to switch off with the Snow Joe this winter.
Thanks.
took mine apart ,got a spare belt,came w no light switch on deck,...is that brush supposed to snap in or be retained in some way, belt is 630mmx10mm pulley 5.5 in v belt shaft 14mx1.5 left hand,not much available parts dont use on heavy wet snow,youll melt the pulley, led lights are held with 2 screws but have to completely take apart like you did,and they have no replacement ,oh well,good for a driveway with dry snow, chute gear is plastic 😀
Couldn't find the carbon brush on mine, but my issue is that it starts up, runs for about a minute or less then slows down and shuts off. After that, it won't restart for about an hour. Only used 3 times last season :(
You shold Show how did you Removed the Left and Right Side Cover! Thanks!
3 screws on side and 2 in back
Does anyone know how to put back together the blue start button unit? I took mine apart and missed how the springs were placed and now I have no clue. :(
I had a burning smell and smoke coming from the left side. How do I fix that?
Sound like the drive belt on the left side. Your paddles have to much load on them!
My motor starts and auger turns for 2 seconds or less, then stops. With a burning smell. Anyone know what’s up with that?
I have the same problem
That was the brush that makes the motor spin
OK... I have one of these and its driving me CRAZY! I took apart the part that contains the squeeze handle that operates the auger. The unit did not work. Played around with the internals of this part and got it to work. Assembled it and mounted it back on the handle it stops working. Have repeated this process several times and every time same thing. Works when apart, stops working when assembled
The switch may not be activating; when you're putting the handle assembly together make sure that the switch is correctly positioned inside. You should be able to tell if the handle activates the on/off. If the handle just flops up and down, the switch is incorrectly positioned.
5:00 that is one of the brushes

Found a little hole underneath. That is the reset button, just use a screw driver to poke it. That is the thing in the video that he pressed in. It must fell off when he took the cover off. No need to take apart.
..."spring job" lol
Piece O'Shit! Literally used 3 minutes on 4 inches of snow WITH the exact recommended extension cord!
Bought 3 pieces of Sunjo, not good items. You must purchase their highly priced batteries because they are not compatible with the other ones. 2 kobalt batteries equal the price of one Sunjo!
Same 24 volt.😡
