I lost the ability to choose low and high speeds on Hunter fans. We replaced the capacitor with this one, and now it's working great. Tools/materials needed can be seen in the photo. It is the grey (back side) wire that attaches to the white wire of A wire's corresponding color is connected to all other wires unless stated otherwise. It is not a good idea to pull the existing wires out of their harness(es). connect the new wires to the old ones, by using "wire nuts", and clip the old ones to the new ones.
The installation is fairly straightforward if you have some basic electrical work knowledge, i. e. , to match the color of the old wires with the new. I love it. I remember when I was a kid, seeing old movies with fans on high speed and it looked like I was in the 1940s. It only deals with the effects. It's a windstorm now that these babies are in the water. It blows just like you expect it to.
My beautiful ceiling fan is about to be trashed due to slow speed but any speed level is too much for me. The fan got back to working like new after I replaced this capacitor. Because it was so affordable, I bought extra to give to future fans.
My stupid fans that keep becoming slow have been replaced with 1/2 dozen of these caps because I love them.
Thus far, everything seems to be going well. The crimps must be swapped out in 15 minutes. I think all your ratings are 5, so check them. There is no tension now between the kids.
It is stated on the label that the original caps were A fan can be set to three speeds. As 5mfd (uf) + 5 + 5 is the same as 10mfd / 5mfd, it is the same as 10mfd / 5mfd. This canopy seal fits perfectly in the canopy, and it is easy to install.
This capacitor was causing the fan to run slowly before it was changed. After a short period of time, all three fan speeds are working like new. I have 3 identical fans, so I purchased the 3 pack and have 2 spare capacitors in case the other fans have the same problem in the future. These parts are easy to install and save the trouble and cost of changing the fan.
