Thread: Any EEs?

  1. #1

    Default Any EEs?

    This is on my circulating pump on my hot water system. Testing continuity everything seems to work but this.
    1. What is it?
    2. How do I test it?
    3. Where can I find a replacement?

    M3 is always the answer.

    1. that is a capacitor.
    2. with a special tester
    3. Mouser.com (7uF [micro-farad] 250v), but it looks like it might be AC, and I'm not familiar with AC circuits.

    For future reference, Grainger is also a good place to find caps for motors. I bought a $10 cap at Grainger to fix my pool pump. The other options for that fix (i.e., not DIY) would have been many hundreds of dollars.
