Trouble shooting has identified three possible faults; 1. Condenser cooling fan capacitor 2. Condenser cooling fan 3. Condenser cooling fan relay .
it is a T494C model (not a lot of use).
I would be grateful for any information on the following
Are the capacitor types in these dryers Start or Start & Run? (I have tested the capacitor several times with a multimeter and it meets the spec).
Is it possible to test the cooling fan (induction) motor in the machine by hooking up 240V AC to the connection (L N & E) or is it best to remove it? If it can be tested by that method and it doesn't run, then spin motor before applying power. If it runs, that would indicate the capacitor is at fault. Sound reasonable?
Re the capacitor, where is it located on the machine for this model? I would hope it is a plug in type and not soldered in?
