Hi Guys,
My first post in this section.
I loaned my dehydrator (food dryer etc) and the inevitable happened, it came home not working (why does loaning equipment cause so much pain)
On dismantling I find the unit has had a hard knock which has broken the mounting pins off the coil plate allowing the coil plate to stall the fan/motor. Some small damage that can be repaired,however coil or motor will not run. There is a small electric component mounted between the active and load. I think it is a resistor but it is a little too fried to read the color bands.
When I jump this component both motor and coil work
but I have been reluctant to allow it to run for more then a few seconds in case I burn every thing out.
Can anyone tell me: 1) if this is a resistor
2) If so what value it is
3) Is it really needed
Your help would be much appreiated
Cheers
Peter
