Im having some issues replacing a capacitor on a blower motor for my kids jumping castle. the original one was so cooked i could not read the specs on it.
I looked up the run capacitor size for the motor size and tried that (12uf capacitor for a 240v 600-720w motor)
it worked but the castle is not inflating properly.
I then put in a 15uf capacitor hoping to increase the fan speed but it was hardly inflating at all
I have a 10uf capacitor on order. Am I doing something wrong? is the capacitor type critical?
the company that makes them are no help at all they just keep trying to sell me a new blower.
any Ideas?
thanks,
Ashley
