Its capacitance isn't recorded on our system, and the drum motor version is a different part, so compare the value and number on your old capacitor before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDryer motor humming but drum not turning? Check the capacitor\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA single phase induction motor needs a run capacitor to create the phase shift that gets it turning and keeps it running smoothly. When the capacitor loses capacitance or fails open, the motor may hum without starting, start only if the drum is turned by hand, run hot, or trip its thermal cut-out after a few minutes. A capacitor that has bulged, leaked or cracked is a clear giveaway. Rule out a broken belt, a jammed drum or a seized fan first, as these can produce similar symptoms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux group part 8581256418014\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso numbered 1256418-01\/1 (1256418011)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotor running capacitor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCapacitance not listed, match the old part\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrum motor capacitor 8581256417016 is a separate part\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSafe capacitor replacement\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnplug the dryer and wait several minutes. Capacitors can hold a charge, so discharge the terminals with an insulated tool or a resistor before touching them. Photograph the wiring, then move the leads across one at a time. Make sure the new capacitor is clamped firmly in its bracket. If you're not confident around mains wiring, have a qualified technician do the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use any capacitor with the same value?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA capacitor with the same microfarad value and an equal or higher voltage rating will often work electrically, but its size, terminals and mounting must also suit.
