GE F-135
#4

Howard2 Wrote:Thanks for your response. The motor runs both ways and worked fine for 2 days and then one of the windings opened. Resistance measurements show open in one set of windings and 1 or 2 ohms through the other winding. The tuning worked great for a short time. The motor cap was way off in value and it ran slowly until the correct value was installed. Running it with the wrong value may have caused over current condition. Thanks. Howard2

Have you tried to repair the open winding? Unwrapped the insulation and inspected it? You may be lucky and find that it broke off near the lead at one end or that it failed due to a dcaying solder joint. If push comes to shove you could try your hand at rewinding it, not sure about this model but many of these were 20 some odd volts so it shouldn't be too hard although still not fun.
