Any electrical engineers on here that could help?
Maybe @lightning as you will have seen plenty of these, maybe not for repair though.
I have my FILs wee electric mixer down to do a bit of work however when you switch it on all you get is a buzzing/ humming sound as if the motor is locked up and the drum obviously doesnt spin.
I can manually spin the gearbox/ pulleys/ motor by hand so there is nothing physically locking up the motor. Bearings in the motor seem fine, smooth with no play.
Changed the capacitor and it had a new switch a few years ago. Ive ordered another to see if that will help. Other than that I think the motor is likely dead i think?
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Anton
