Sounds like directional switches or the traction pot all located by the handle. Check those out. How does it do with plugging? usually failing to plug is a symptom of bad switches/pot.
Motor brushes need to be replaced when the top of the brush is even or just below the brush holder. If you replace them make sure to blow the motor out with compressed air. That should be done pretty regularly.
