Hello ive registered for some advice.
My extractor for my workshop stopped and hummed
When I turn it off and on it worked...
Also when I tip it sideways it wont start but tilt it the right way again and it wil start.
So I opened it up and I found this.. I guess the capacitor is on its way out leaking like this.
I cant find a match online and I'm not sure about using different to exactly what it says on it that's out of my expertise..
Does this sound typical of the capacitor? I havent looked any further as this may be the issue.
The wires to motor will they still be ok? Cause there hardwired into the motor
Till its sorted I'll have to live with welding smells and fumes ?? neighbour complains of the flashing so i keep door shut ??
